I'm curious why any new plug-ins should be added to the core *at all*.
Gimp's distribution is fairly large as it is.  Isn't it getting time to
limit additional plug-ins to the core distribution to plug-ins which are
considered "vital" in some way?  Even some estoric file plug-ins need not
necessarily be included with the core package.  Throwing in the kitchen
sink is what's starting to bloat some Linux distros.

Just a thought.
