Note that these brushes are editable. They are just read-only because
they are in the system folder.
I am well aware of the technical reasons. That does not change it for
the user. From user POV they are non-editable clutter that you cant even
trim.

Why couldn't that copy be made for the user on profile creation?
Last time we discussed this, we decided against copying all resource

Exactly, you need a visual cue. That's why I think
it's important to offer a set of differently sized
brushes in the brushes list. So that

Sure, that's why we keep asking for someone to improve
the collection of default brushes collection in GIMP
for some years now. So far there hasn't been much interest.
We also don't have a maintainer for the gimp-data-extras package.

There are some questions that need to be solved before we can do this though:
- How can the user resurrect brushes that she removed?
Reset default brushes button somewhere near brushes paths in
preferences that recopies them. Or the user can manually copy the ones

Simple. IMHO yes.
Then you have to maintain the user directory if the next release

Hi I'm just a user of GIMP, not a developer.
I usually only use the brush-editor and just open the same
brush all the time and changing size and shape the way I need it.
I hardly ever use the default-brushes. So here is an idea I

The root of the problem, really, is that gimp currently shows every
brush in its search path. There won't be any major improvement
until that basic problem is fixed, and the user is given control over
which brushes are available at any given moment. Fortunately,
there is an ongoing Summer of
