Hey Mika, It's great to see you person share my needs as well. I built Tito for GIMP a couple of years ago for the same purpose. Here is a demo: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G0PuH1LFWhA I even blogged about it: http://sriharisriraman.in/blog/2013/09/15/gimp-tito Good thing is that Jehan is now helping in getting this into master. You can see the progress on that in the feature request here: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=708174 If you are a developer, please do join in! it would be great to have another collaborator on this.
