That's a good question. Notice though that Zarathustra actually does not advocate rewriting Gimp at all. He is perfectly happy with the current interface, and thinks there is no reason to do anything with it except perhaps few minor tweeks.
OTOH, there seem to be those who want to rewrite or fork Gimp and give it some sort of MDI interface. To those says Zarathustra: ok, go ahead if you want to, but please make it in such a way that there is a common back-end onto which each can slap their own subjective user interface. In theory, that shouldn't be so hard, as Gimp can currently run with no GUI at all. But I doubt Zarathustra will do anything about it, since he likes the current user interface and sees no reason to change it.
