A better web slice tool that will possibly slice many shapes (not just rectangles).
Implement the combined selection tool
Improve support for importing and exporting PSD files, including support for reverse engineering of Adobe gradients and brushes. :bigthup

It's gonna be a cool summer.

This isn't to say these things will come to pass in Gimp-2.10 but i have seen stranger things happen.
I think they should try and get that foreground select tool from the RGGJAN fork working in Gimp-2.10.

And what about that clone tool that was being worked on?

The foreground select tool is completely awesome. I want it now yesterday.

The clone tool looks like it will be awesome also. Good find, Rod!

O, Partha actually has a windows 32 bit and 64 bit version of this RGGJAN fork on his website.

I have it myself, but i would like to see them implement it into the next version.Must be a GEGL thing.

Both of these tools have been working, and ready just not added yet.
