One reason to keep some image hose brushes in the default set is just to demonstrate that gimp supports them! I participate in a web forum for amateur cartography, and one of the most common requests is how to use tubes with photoshop. Most are extremely impressed that this capability exists in G

[Gimp-developer] 2 part - Scripts to be included in the core, and keybindings?

Couple quick questions... How is it decided what scripts should be included in the core? For example, I have created a new script with a number of menu entries to grow selections orthogonally (like PS with alt and shift-alt cursors) which, when bound to the appropriate keys can be quite handy. (

The current perspective method is not compatible with what you describe (mesh distortion). I am not a math guy but my understanding is that perspective is (iir) affine and can be implemented as a 3x3 matrix transform.
