One reason to keep some image hose brushes in the default set is just to demonstrate that gimp supports them! I participate in a web forum for amateur cartography, and one of the most common requests is how to use tubes with photoshop. Most are extremely impressed that this capability exists in

Couple quick questions... How is it decided what scripts should be included in the core? For example, I have created a new script with a number of menu entries to grow selections orthogonally (like PS with alt and shift-alt cursors) which, when bound to the appropriate keys can be quite handy.
