Yes, is my workflow to paint... well, I think that this approach is very
useful on the painting but might interesting to other areas. My workflow...
but here I am talking about a painting flow... would be very pretentious
talk by all ;-)

My impression was always that this order is addition of features on the
time. For example... the jitter can be dependent of dynamics... but now
this is not clear in this order.
Another feature... the incremental is far of opacity... but they have a
great relationship.
My proposal... is to discuss the current order also to photographers.

Exact! But we need understand the main function or main reason of this
gimp-ui mailing list... perhaps is to talk over all... is the will to see a
good app, with a good ui to painters and to the photographers.

The current order is perhaps a vision of one flow or area?
If yes, we have a problem, if not, we have also a problem... :-) the
current order need a good discussion...
