   I don't know if this has been talked about yet but could be nice for a 
   future version of GIMP.

   Currently, in order to use a custom brush/gradient/etc, you must first 
   create it, then edit/save/etc.  Every time you want a new brush you have 
   to create a new one, even if it is a temporary brush.  Instead why not 
   have the 'active' brush (and gradient,etc) always be user editable, 
   saved between sessions.

How would you restore the original version of the brush, in case you
edited it accidentally?
