I don't understand what I am supposed to see.
I regularly had to do 1px modifications, and do these kind of tests 
regularly. I did test again just before I answered my previous message, 
because this assertion was so weird to me, so I needed to be double-sure 
I didn't dream my previous usage of 1px brushes.

Now I redid a test, and here is a screenshot I made just now of a single 
drawn pixel with a 1x1 brush and the pencil tool:

Of course, I can also do 1px width/height lines without a problem, and 
so on.

Obviously now, if you try drawing with the paintbrush tool, clicking not 
exactly on a pixel center, it will draw on several pixels, because it 
tries to interpolate. That's how the tool works. Also that's the nature 
of pixels, which are the smallest elements in a raster image. Use the 
pencil tool instead if you don't want any interpolation attempt.

Or maybe I just don't understand some other problem you are referring 
to. Because as far as I am concerned, I have no problem drawing single 
pixels with brush tools.
