At first i have to note, that the usage of the current path tool in Gimp
is a pain. Its really hard, needlessly complicated to work with. The
behavior of Inkscape is way superior, even if it is not perfect. Also it
is hard to manage multiple paths at once. I won't say that Gimp is
missing a feature you could use for the same things, but i just don't
want to use it, since it takes me longer to work with it as Skipping
back and forth between Inkscape and Gimp... (not a good sign for useability)
