So, I took my concerns over to the gimp-user mailing list, where apparently this issue has been argued over a number of times.
thanks a lot; also for sumarising here
As for alternatives, krita (the RPM is "calligra-krita") and pinta, both of which are available in Fedora, were suggested for people who just aren't professional enough to grok the One True GIMP Way.
krita is more a painting tool than photo manipulating
pinta is a mono bloat - and it doesn't work for me:
