You know, when you put it that way, I have to concede your point. There
are some things in future-GiMP which are more important than a UI
change. (Though I dare say few as trivial as the UI change under
discussion.)
But we, the users, aren't asking for something new. We're asking for
something that was there but is no longer.

Bye,

Whether a job or a hobby, prioritizing effectively is probably *MOST*
important.
In this regard, voluminous postings that are distracting and
*UNNECESSARY* is *ALWAYS* counterproductive.
Any posting that starts "I understand that the developers are ---" is
counterproductive.
The notion that the marvelously effective GIMP developers were unaware
of the discomfort this UI change would produce was gainsaid in earlier
postings in this and related threads; I would encourage all those who
are fans of GIMP and would like to have the ever-changing developer
group get on with their priorities: please back off and let them be. I
*WANT* CMYK; I *WANT* high-bit-depth; I *WANT* more robust undo
history; I *WANT* more intuitive UI; I *WANT* a smoother work flow; I
*WANT* - - -
I will not mention what my priorities are, but I can understand that
the large community of users is likely to have a large number of
subgroups each of which would agree on a profoundly different set of
priorities than many of the other subgroups.
I am reminded of a comedian's remark some decades ago: "I wish those
people who can't communicate would SHUT UP ABOUT IT."

PS - I apologize for distracting any members of the worldwide GIMP
community who dislike being bothered by threads like these - please
forgive.
