The sole advantage of the Bucket Fill tools is the threshold functionality and the fact that the possibility to fill using DND is not obvious. I feel that that last one is a problem. The GUI needs to be consistent. Why not stick to three basic things: tools, filters, and scripts. The tools should all be in the Gimp main window as buttons (or maybe only partially in beginner mode if we do the config/skin thing, sounds good to me btw, ICQ has it too for example), and the filters should be in Image-Filters, scripts would go into Image-Scripts. These should then be subdivided into logical groups, from the user side, not from the programmer side. The user doesn't care if a script was written in Perl or in Scheme, he cares about what it does to his image. The unobvious things can stay, but please, keep them as hidden functionality for power users, not as the only possible way to do it.

Re: [Gimp-developer] Re: Re: Bucket fill, Fill with foreground and gradient
Ok, first idea for poll: -Do you use the bucket-fill 1. All the time 2. I normally use fill with foreground/background-color 3. Only to fill with pattern. 4. What is bucket fill? Ralf Hmm, I use the bucket fill all the time, both for patterns and filling selections. If I want to fill a region with a similar colour with another one I usually select it with the magic wand and then bucket fill. It's easier to see how far you'll get that way. As far as I'm concerned the threshold can disappear, making it default to always fill the entire selection (or the entire image if there is no selection). Magic wand can do the selecting.
