Sorry, but the GIMP user interface sucks and that urgently needs to change. We have plans to improve it and we are not going to make every change optional just to please some users that are not willing to follow us on the user interface changes. And we are going to make some much more drastic changes in the future. Whenever we do a change we try to be very careful so that we don't break existing work-flows. Sometimes we fail at this and introduce a regression for certain use cases we did not consider. Usually when this happens, we are perfectly willing to make further changes to fix this. This whole discussion is so pointless. You are making a comparison to the Linux kernel that is completely inadequate and at the same time you did not give a single concrete example of a change that you disliked. Or even bothered to explain what you dislike about it. It appears that your only problem is that things are changing. Sorry, but you will have to get along with that. We are not going to stop ourselves from changing the GIMP user interface to the better.
