Sorry, I don't follow... Why can't you simply open a .png file in GIMP

What matters is the perception of the perception of the program in

You know, when you put it that way, I have to concede your point. There
are some things in future-GiMP which are more important than a UI
change. (Though I dare say few as trivial as the UI change under
discussion.)
But we, the users, aren't asking for something new. We're asking for

Actually there is a crucial point of workflows that you are missing. In
order to make workflows work well for everyone, everything should be
done in approximately the same way. Each function in a GUI should use
similar hotkeys, similar menu functions and all that. This was a well

This is a valid point of human behavior on software. It doesn't matter
how many warnings software might offer, the user develops habits and
eventually, for convenience sake, clicks on things very habitually.
