I hope you don't deem it inappropriate for a non-developer to input his opinion 
on a developing issue but I'd like to add that people who are really concerned 
about what GIMP can not do are certainly not concerned about the set of 
brushes, patter etc pp. shipped with GIMP. If there is something to work on in, 
especially the brushes section then it is improving the brush engine to give 
greater GENERIC flexibility - take a commecrical brush engine as an example - I 
only know the PS one and I think that's what's needed. Predefined pattern and 
brushes are useless from a certain extend on. They just bloat the list with 
things you will never use. As an artist (which I am hardly) I will surely 
refrain from using an oversized set of patterns and brushes. A decent amount of 
generic patters and brushes (bitmap) are very good - common things, mostly 
grain patterns - no one uses apparently repetetive patterns and diffuse 
irregular brushes which cannot be generated. But then on the brush 
 
size, we need far more control over generic brushes. Again, look at PS.
