The reason for the blur effect on text layers is that GIMP converts vector text to raster before performing scaling and rotation operations, destroying the text layer (as a text layer). I'd agree that this makes GIMP quite a pain to use for text layers, to the point where I export backgrounds from GIMP and just use Inkscape or Scribus instead. This is not really news, though. I've seen numerous threads that address the problems with the current implementation of text layers in GIMP. Is there a plan to properly handle text and vector shape layers (ie- preserve the vector shapes and text-editing capabilities?)
