A counter-example: I need the 'Newsprint' filter every 2 months or

follow-up question: (without looking - no cheating) which
menu/sub-menu would *you* look under to find 'Newsprint'?
"Help/Plugin browser"
To be honest, I sometimes don't remember the menu locations for some
of my own scripts... but I don't remember their exact names either.
And very often you don't even know what word to search for, or the
word you would search for ("halftoning") is not the one used
("newsprint").
I'm the same. But in way more then 50% of the cases i know the name
quite well and still find myself searching through the sub menus, just
to locate it. A search could also easily avoid the
"halftoning"/"newsprint" issue. It just needs to contain both or more
search terms for the same item. This would also increase the impression
for people that are used to other graphic programs and try to find the
same or similar functionality in Gimp. Switching to Gimp isn't that
hard, but not finding the stuff you are used to (even though it exists)
can be quite headache.
