It would seem that a short-term menu system is better than a mess, though in the long run something better is probably good and necessary.

The LPE choose dropdown box is getting really huge now. Who wants to make mockups of what is a better system for applying effects?
What about just a hierarchical menu with submenus, similar to the Effects menu?
I think we need a bit of a Big Picture (c)(R)(tm) here :)
We are likely to end up with a huge amount of LPE. If you have a loot at GIMP's Filters menu, it's overpopulated and difficult to navigate.
nip2 [1] developers solved similar issue by introducing search for filters. That's also what GIMP people are doing in one of this year's GSoC projects [2].
Should we be moving in that direction?
