I can not reproduce this with current CVS HEAD. When I link two layers
and use the move tool on one of them, the other layers moves as well.
Perhaps I misunderstood the problem?

 #2 In Gimp 1.2.x, an asterisk appears next to the file name in the title
 bar when changes have been made to an image.  I don't see an asterisk in
 1.3.  Not a real biggie.  Was it left out on purpose?  Or am I missing a
 preference setting somewhere?

This can be configured using File-Preferences-Title  Status. You need
to add %D* to the beginning of the Image Title Format line. See also
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=120424

 #3 With an image open, do View-Info Window.  Don't close the Info Window.
  Now click on the image to give it focus and do View-Info Window again. 
 The Info Window doesn't raise above the image.  Shouldn't it come to the
 top and receive focus?

Yes, I would say it should focus the Info Window again. Please file a
bug report on this.

 #4 This next one I've only seen on 1.3.22 under Windows.  In fullscreen
 mode, I see no indication of a selected area (ie., no marching ants) when
 I make a selection.  Note: I did pump up the ant marching speed to 75. 
 I'll have to reset that and see what happens tomorrow at work.

Try right-clicking the image to display the image menu. Then chose
View-Show Selection.

If you would like the selection to be shown by default when in
fullscreen mode you can change the behavior in
File-Preferences-Appearance.

 #5 I've noticed some artifacts when doing work at high zoom levels.  To
 replicate this, draw a little something (most anything will work), now
 zoom in on an area.  Next select an area, copy it and move it around with
 the arrow keys.
 Here's what I got just now:
 http://epierce.freeshell.org/images/no_5.png
 See all the 1 pixel high artifacts that were left behind as I moved the
 image up to the left and right?  It seems this only works if your zoom
 ratio becomes some exotic ratio like 167:83 as opposed to 1:4 or 4:1. 
 Could this be related to Bug 124073
 (http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=124073)?

I can easily reproduce that here. I thought there already was a report
about it in bugzilla, but I can't seem to locate it now. Please file a
bug report about it and attach no_5.png to it.

 That's it.  Anyway, I don't mean to be nitpicky or anything.  I just
 thought this is a good time to address some of these potential bugs since
 we're coming upon 2.0.

Reporting found bugs is always a good thing :)

Sincerely,
./Brix

In GIMP-1.3 all linked layers move together if the layer you are
moving is linked as well.

You are missing a Preference setting. See Image Windows-Title and
Status and check what the gimprc-1.3 manpage says.

 Window.  Now click on the image to give it focus and do View-Info

Yes indeed. Please file a bug report for this. But the the info window
as is is supposed to be replaced in the short term anyway...

Again, you missed a Preference setting. Fullscreen mode is now fully
configurable and the default setup is to have the fullscreen view show
the image w/o any layer or selection boundaries. (Is anyone actually
reading what I write into the NEWS file??).

 The contents of the image window and the status bar are now
 customisable in the preferences. The %D format string gives you
 the dirty flag. %D* will add a * to the title if the image is
 dirty, %D@ will add a @. This is not very well documented at the 
 moment...

This is very well documented in the gimprc manpage.

I stand corrected. There is also complete documentation in the
system gimprc file. However, those are probably not places that
people will go to look for docs on the preferences dialog. I
think we can agree that while there are lots of docs for the
preferences, there is no way to know where to look at them from
looking at the preferences dialog. 

Perhaps context help (gimp-help project?) would help here.

Cheers,
Dave.
