That is nice of course but is that so useful that gimp has to clone Photoshop ? > using Save for web for other media than the web > is nice too an example should be nice; Traditionnally we have two kinds of output : screen/display (px) or paper (mm, pt or picas).

I don't understand how all this can be a problem because, there is no qualitéy problem. If i'd heard that gimp's jpeg compression produces worst results than Photoshop (which is someway true) or that photoshop's pngs were better optimized, may be i would have understand. I only see here good feedback of someone who tested but don't really want to do efforts. But may be i'm the wrong way. I personnaly think this save_for_web plugin is one of the best thing that happened to gimp the last 3 months.
