And an absence of a convenient non-destructive tool is a major misfeature. The first thing I do when entering GIMP is switching to the eyepicker (or is is dropper? ;-) tool. But it is not non-destructive enough; and it is useless as a default tool. For me, a possibility to have a "Panning" tool as the default would make my life much more useful (one which behaves as mid-mouse-drag). A few mouses around have a middle button. And SPACE-panning is useless if the focus is not on the picture window...
