GIMP-painter-2.8: Current development status (20121202)

Very interesting. Isn't GIMP-painter the fork born from GIMP 2.6, whose only difference was (at the time) the additional paintbrush tool (the feature request is still open there: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=522226)?

I thought, last I searched for it (and also because the author of paintbrush tool never answered to the feature request where it was asked if he could adapt the patch to the dev tree), that the development stopped at this version 2.6.

So now I searched again, and I found this: http://fr.sourceforge.jp/projects/gimp-painter/scm/git/gimp-painter-2.7/
The last commit is tagged "gimp-2-8" and "rotate", so I guess that's it. The question is: why not propose these very neat features to the upstream tree so that they can get out with GIMP 2.10?! That would be much better long term.
This canvas rotating function demonstrated in the video is indeed quite nice.

Are there other differences in the fork other than the canvas rotate and the paintbrush tool?
