It is predictable and more useful than random placement for sure. But
with hires monitor I would still like some kind of hint from the
mouse. Maybe LMB click and then paste would do it?

I am puzzled -- if it is better (and I agree) we should use it. Is
there any reason to keep worse UI?
I think progress means search for better solutions and use them. Here

I don't think the cursor is ever a good insertion point. It is better
than a random insertion point, yes, but so what? It's still not a good

So what? It wouldn't hurt anybody either. It would presumably be
trivial to implement and it wouldn't require any new UI.

Hi,
Problem:
---
The problem is with zoom in and zoom out. Gimp does not recenter the
area user focuses on. With zoom in the workaround cost is small (the
most problematic is how to zoom in the image when it still fits into
the window), but with zoom out it is significant. It affects

In GIMP 2.6.2 when pasting several references are taken into
account -- and that is useful.
But if there is no reference (no previously selected region for
example) it would be useful to paste the block initially at mouse

In GIMP there is such feature as rotate. This is of course useful but
when correcting, you can say alignment, it is also useful to have
ability to rotate image in such way that some point would make
