I'm not insisting on changing anything in GIMP.  Reread what I said.  My
question was not adequately answered so I continued discussion.

I merely asked if one of the reasons for the creation of GEGL was to
abstract graphical manipulation functions out of the GUI into a library.
If that was the case would creating a different GUI on top of it feasible
for getting similar quality of image manipulation?

Your latest response answers my question.
