Well, that was two years ago and lots of people have expressed their
opinion that splitting up the gimp tree into stand-alone modules would
be a bad idea. Let's say that I was convinced...

Fine with me. But I was assuming that the scripts are identical anyway.
If you prefer to use the ones in Tiny-Fu, you will have to make sure
that you incorporate the recent changes, in particular the blurb review.

Well, Tiny-Fu basically won't exist any longer then. Script-Fu will just
have gotten a major overhaul and a new Scheme interpreter. Given that
this change works well, and I am pretty sure that it will, we will not
want to go back.

I would like to review the patch before it gets committed. But in
general I vote for doing the change. If anyone else has strong
objections for doing this switch now, please speak up.
