First another screenshot of the gimp close dialog. unforuntately this one is different. if you have not already saved a file it fails to give you the option to Save and instead gives you a different dialog with only close and discard. http://www.maths.tcd.ie/~horkana/gimp-close-unsaved.png I'll probably have to file a bug about this later, but it will be hard for inkscape to be consistant with an application that is not consistant with itself.
Back to the oringal purpose of this message I decided I'd rummage through bugzilla and try and pick out some bugs or issues that might help with consistancy issues, so that if anyone was interested they might sign up to gnome bugzilla and make some suggestions with respect to Inkscape. by influencing the future direction of the gimp it might make consistancy with Inkscape easier later on
report discussing the modifier keys used by some of the GIMP tools, might be worth noting in any discussions on keyboard shortcuts http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=120973
request for a "Customizable Toolbar" and this would probably be similar to the top toolbar in inkscape. http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=133030
report about XMP and IPTC might be of interst, points to lots of other relevant bugs http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=94416
request to reorganise the gimp scripts and filters http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=116145 some ideas but no definative plan
the Wiki also features a discussion on menu reorganisation http://wiki.gimp.org/gimp/GimpMenuReorganization
There are probably more bits and pieces of gimp developement that active users or developers could take a quick look at and add their opinion to help try and make things more consistant. Hope this is of some use.
Please post this to the appropriate WIKI page. That is a lot to take in and someone has already started to pool these resources together on the wiki.
