How about this as a suggestion:
Find an existing menuRc files with photoshop key bindings. Ask the author if it
can be included in a Gimp release. Include it as a renamed file so its not
loaded by default. find a maintainer for it (the original author if possible,
but if not, I can do it).

Add a single "For Photoshop users" page to the help file. There, tell users how
to change the menurc file so they have photoshop-like keys. This won't change
the application in any way, and will enable those who insist on it to have
photoshop key bindings. I can't see any downside and it's very easy to implement.
