I think nobody use it, also because would be close to the impossible do
something definite with it:
not only is not clear for what is for, but even after reading its help page,
remain basically unusable as it is now because miss even the most rudimentary
preview
Much more widely used and interesting filters were removed (i.e. the freetype
plugin)
Many third party plugin fit much more in the gimp product vision
Do you really think that the Van Gogh filters may fit in the gimp product
vision ?
In case at least fix it adding a preview, (but i think nobody will complain
for its removal )
GIMP 3.0 will be the release where we remove things that don't fit out
product vision. I think we might as well wait until then before we
remove it.
Other than that I agree, the plug-in isn't good enough for being
included in GIMP 3.0.
