What the heck - I added it as a (very) simple plug-in: http://registry.gimp.org/node/17235 In 2.6. it returns the length of the path on the status bar. I used gimp_message, so IIRC the location of the message is configurable. It silently fails if there is no active path - it seems to work OK with multiple paths, straight lines, and curves. There is no need to stroke the path. You will need to have Python installed though...
