That's the thing with new options and preferences: they aren't
discoverable, and people tend to avoid reading release notes. I mean,
people are still discovering the single-window mode after almost 10
years! :)

There are some less intrusive ways to make people aware of new
options. I did file https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gimp/-/issues/5541
a while ago, and it looks like Jehan is interested in implementing
that at some point in the future. That should take away some friction.
