well there are more then enough complex and seldom used features..
but then some basic simple basic features are missed
2 examples of missed function available with extra script and plugin that in my user opinion should be adopted
1 what is ps is called " Apply to image"(=copy visible+paste +add new layer)
( available for gimp but not in gimp-out-of-the-box )
2 export layer(s )as
(to replace it i use GAP "split image into frames"
and i suppose "split image into frames" may be adapted to be a Gimp plugin instead then a GAP plugin...and renamed as "export layer(s) as"
3 "Filter all layer" and "filterMacro"
Is available only installing GAP but why?
Is quite useful in gimp also for users that have no any specific interest in Animation....same for "Filtermacro" also only in GAP
Note that users have no way to install 2 and 3 if not installing the whole GAP package

Well it is already possible and is very simple, but the problem is that many users at least on windows are not aware of it
1 suppose you have a pack of scripts, and the script requires some extras as extra gradient, pattern , even extra Gimpimpressionist preset
2 well is just needed put everything in folders with same name of related folders in usr/gimp as "script""gradient""pattern" "Gimpimpressionist",and inside "Gimp inpressionist a folder called " preset"and you zip everything
then the user wil have only to uncompress the zip in there as in C:/Document and setting/username/.gimp-2.4 to get everything in place
Problem is that
1 users are used to unzip the script in the script folder, they may overlook that in this case they must point the unzipper to "C:/Document and setting/username/.gimp-2.4 " instead then to C:/Document and setting/username/.gimp-2.4 /script"
2 Unzipper may have different defaults ,with some default ( as "do not overwrite files") this will no work
But the concept work if a compressed folder script contain a gimp-24 folder and inside" script" "pattern " "brush" subfolder, if uncompressed in C:/Document and setting/username/.gimp-2.4 will put everything in the right place...and with just 1 click
Maybe is possible automatize this step (unzip in), because from user point is very simple but also a bit tricky
