Um, people...

Here's a direct quote from Martin Nordholts, one of our top-productive
emeritus developers:

"Simply put, we know that GIMP's UI still sucks in many respects."

That was said in the public, in one of our mailing list. So no, it's
not exactly evil to say in this ML that GIMP's UI sucks. It's OK to
say that and still use GIMP and/or even develop it :) Just pretty
please stop abusing the right for free speech.

Now for the feature in question... Krita has a simple on-canvas way to
edit brush size. AFAIK, it's Ctrl+LMB+drag. It's a fairly reasonable
solution, and I for one would welcome it.
