No, no, no, and no!  I've been using GIMP for a good number of years now 
and like the current paradigm.   As far as I'm concerned, huge, 
monolithic, windows full of clutter I don't need at the moment not only 
waste screen space but make it just that much more difficult to get to 
the operations I /do/ need at the moment.

As an option, sure, but not as the only paradigm.

I suspect the GIMP folk would appreciate your contribution in writing 
that option.  :-)
