I think the easiest way is with a "last-clicked" policy. The GIMP would hint to the user which image was active by either shading inactive images (eg, making their rulers darker) or highlighting the active image (eg, making the menu button brigher). Perhaps both of these concepts could be added to the mockup; currently it looks like there are 5 active windows.
