GIMP developers have been painfully aware that this is a serious short-coming of the current architecture for the last decade. There is no need to reiterate this :). Besides what needs fixing is the 8bit per component limitation, 16 bits/component isn't how it will be fixed though. The internal processing will jump straight to 32bit floating point allowing HDR processing and other advantages. /Øyvind Kolås -- «The future is already here.
