Hi
The Gimp developers  approach  is unfortunately very "closed". They do 
not care about the users and they believe they have the truth.... But a 
developer is mainly a developer, not a professional image editing.
You can compare with other software development, like  new Enlightenment 
(E17 and E18).
It's completely different. The developers and  the main developer 
(Rasterman) listen to users reviews and they use these criticisms to 
improve the program.
