OK, so the big problem is Script-Fu because it's fairly embedded and it's somewhat hairy. The ordinary plugins aren't much of a problem, in the very worst case they can be removed from the distribution temporarily. Surely the #1 thing someone should be doing (preferably someone who actually knows about Script-Fu) is to contact the copyright holders for the "obnoxiously licensed" Script-Fu code and ask them very politely if they would let us include that code in some GPL software, with proper credits of course, but without the unacceptable license terms ? Please someone figure out who to contact, mail them and CC the list. Nick.
