> I guess that if no one else has this problem, it is a kde problem. That would also be my guess. I've been using Gimp with KDE 3.[012] for some time, and although I (contrary to you) never ran into anything that I knew should work but didn't, there surely were moments that made me doubt the cleverness of its focus policy. Gnome 2.6.(2, currently) works better for me with regards to that, so I recommend that you give it a shot (if possible) and see if the problem remains, to narrow down the range of imagined possibilities.
