I am very sure the developers are aware 'you' feel this is a bad move, 
not all 'GIMP' users would agree with you.

What I find very strange with this thread, is that many repliers to the 
thread (I am not meaning you particularly) are demanding change back, 
but the developers are wishing to take the project in a direction of 
their liking, which some people really do not understand. Have you paid 
an money for this software ? We are given this software by the 
developers we can not demand anything, we may ask, but it does mean we 
get, and it has been stated many many times now the export option is 
here to stay. (http://gui.gimp.org/index.php/GIMP_UI_Redesign).
