 figure out what I'm thinking.  If I still don't make sense, I can make 
 some illustrations to help explain them.
 
   Select Within
 Adds to the selection everything that is fully contained within the 
 selection
 (An option for this) Leave large areas unselected (checkbox with 
 slider for minimum large size)

See my pre-Christmas post of a patch to add a "tighten selection"
item to the selection menu.

 What about the bugtracker? It's much mightier now and a good place to 
 keep things.

Hi,

   Background Remover
 Used for defringing.  Makes an edge partialy transparent and 
 removes the background color from the semi-transparent area.
 (Imagine a black area bluring onto a white background)
 In this example the gray area would be made black, and the 
 transparancy would be adjusted to give the same appearance of 
 gray

This is exactly what the "Color To Alpha" plug-in shipped with
Gimp-1.2 does.

The other ideas seem to be good suggestions. I think we should
set up a web-forum where we collect ideas and suggestions like
this.


Salut, Sven
