Please keep your replies on topic.

This thread is about improving the plugin API to the painting system
of GIMP (which is not, anyway, a program for digital painting, but a
'Image Manipulation Program'; naturally tools designed for digital
painting, Like MyPaint or Krita, will be better for digital painting.)

As Paint Tool Sai is also not open-source, it definitely has no
relevance to this thread, unless it also possesses a programming API
for plugins or scripts to non-interactively paint which solves this
same problem, and which you will describe.
