Bye,

Whether a job or a hobby, prioritizing effectively is probably *MOST* important.
In this regard, voluminous postings that are distracting and *UNNECESSARY* is
*ALWAYS* counterproductive.
Any posting that starts "I understand that the developers are ---" is
counterproductive.
The notion that the marvelously effective GIMP developers were unaware of the
discomfort this UI change would produce was gainsaid in earlier postings in this
and related threads; I would encourage all those who are fans of GIMP and would
like to have the ever-changing developer group get on with their priorities:
please back off and let them be. I *WANT* CMYK; I *WANT* high-bit-depth; I
*WANT* more robust undo history; I *WANT* more intuitive UI; I *WANT* a smoother
work flow; I *WANT* - - -
I will not mention what my priorities are, but I can understand that the large
community of users is likely to have a large number of subgroups each of which
would agree on a profoundly different set of priorities than many of the other
subgroups.
I am reminded of a comedian's remark some decades ago: "I wish those people who
can't communicate would SHUT UP ABOUT IT."

PS - I apologize for distracting any members of the worldwide GIMP community who
dislike being bothered by threads like these - please forgive.
