 anyway, i could find no such command-line flag listed in the man page 
 for the Gimp, nor in the manual at http://manual.gimp.org , nor in the 
 user faq at http://www.rru.com/~meo/gimp/faq-user.html , etc etc.. so i 
 was wondering if anyone here knew.. is there any way to do this?

This looks more like a problem with gqview. IMO it seems like gqview
wants to open a _new_ GIMP and run the image in there. I don't think
GIMP is the problem with this that might be the reason to why there is
nothing about the things you are looking for.

Have you asked the same question to the people behind gqview? Maybe they
have better answers?

IMHO gqview should see that there is a GIMP opened and open it with a
new image or something simular.

I would have thought mention of gimp-remote would be in a FAQ.
gimp-remote --new is probably what you want.
