Most are filters, as they are under the filters menu. And there are a 
few other editing operations sprinkled around the menu tree that don't 
seem to have associated icons/cursors and also can't be put in the toolbox.

A generic "other editing operation" icon/cursor might be a nice thing to 
display when the selected editing operation doesn't have an 
editing-operation-specific" icon/cursor.

What is the defining difference between a filter and a tool, other than 
the place they show up in the menu and whether they can be put in the 
toolbox?

Best,
