Here are pointers that work well with script-fu (up to a point): http://www.cs.indiana.edu/chezscheme/debug/
Too bad script-fu doesn't support tracing.

I have a few function on my must have list. I've been able to find some

It's been over 20 years since I did any LISP programming so Scheme is
not to bad, but still a chore.
My biggest issue is debugging. My searching has turned up this quote
(http://adrian.gimp.org/batch/batch-7.html):
"Debugging Script-Fu scripts is only slightly less painful than stabbing
yourself in the eye with a dull spoon.
There is no debugger for Script-Fu, and it tends to generate either no
errors or pretty much useless errors."
That sums up my experience so far, but I'm looking for a more optimistic
approach.
If anyone has any suggestions, I'd appreciate it.

As a more long term fantasy, has there been any discussion of an RPC
portal to the Procedure Database.
This would allow add-ons to be written in any language with a relatively
small investment in each. The big plus for the developers of add-on
would be the ability to use existing IDEs with a DEBUGGER.
This is a project I could sink my teeth into.
