Well, KGet has one, and it's definitely recognizable... Anyway. The real problem isn't Wilber in the toolbox, it's justa another inconsistency. The real problem are all the inconsistencies that have gone into a STABLE release. A release that was supposed to solve a lot of UI problems, but looks like an alpha quality release from the UI viewpoint.
The most glaring example I can see right now is the supposed transformation of the Toolbox and the dockable dialogs in utility windows. It actually makes the situation worse. Now, if I minimize the "main" window, I can't minimize the other ones. Isn't it great? I really hope it's a bug, because if it isn't and it passed the almighty UI Team, then I suggest to get another one, because that sucks really bad. I'll continue to use GIMP anyway. I really like to use free software and the superior scriptability of GIMP, but we should begin to learn from the other projects and tackle the real problem in GIMP. It's not the lack of capabilities, it's not what under the hood. It's the interface. Don't get me wrong, I really appreciate all the hard work all the developers have been doing, but it's very frustrating when you are trying to advocate a great free program and get bitten by the most interested party.
