No (and AFAICS, there will never be -- it has too much potential to
confuse the user and introduce race conditions.)
I was going to mention you could use xdotool to trigger the keyboard
shortcuts for Eraser or Paintbrush,
but actually you can't (not in Script-Fu; I always use Python to write
my GIMP plugins, and I can shell out to xdotool easily enough in
Python)
