I have reverted the patch that sneaked into CVS one day even so I totally agree that the behaviour should be changed. But all scripts and probably even some plug-ins make heavy use of it. Look into the Script-Fu scripts, they are full of (gimp-palette-set-background (`r g b)) (gimp-edit-fill drawable) We would have to change them all or we could introduce a weird hack that only changes the behaviour in the GUI, but wouldn't that be even more confusing?
