"There's always another way to do this in the GIMP" is pretty much a
law of nature.  Here's yet another, deceptively simple:

Make a new brush, a generic circle might be just what you want.  In
the Brush Editor there's a setting for Spacing:  Turn that way up,
and you get a brush that makes, guess what, evenly spaced dots!

Example:  http://pilobilus.net/img/1_dot_brush.gbr

I don't find a way to set the spacing of a brush "on the fly" in
GIMP 2.8, maybe that's an oversight on my part.
