[Gimp-developer] Annoying behavior of shared settings for file save plug-ins

[Alexander Rabtchevich]

Rather strange conclusion  from my POV - if something very convenient 
cannot be provided for each and every case, it shouldn't be provided at 
all.
I can prove my opinion with a case with healing brush. It saves me a lot 
of time and efforts during photo retouching despite the fact it doesn't 
support healing along a path.
