I've made those changes and more.  It supports frame width (0 for image 
width), frame height (0 for image height) frame count (0 for rows * col) 
in case there are 3x3 rows but only say 7 frames, and direction (left to 
right then top to bottom or top to bottom then left to right).

It may only work with gimp 2.3+ since it uses the function 'floor' and I 
don't know if gimp 2.2 has it.

I have attached it here if anyone is interested and I will try and 
submit it to the register.
