400 feature requests? Dear lord! Such terrible news. Let's look at KDE.

Oh my! Over 12 THOUSAND feature requests! I can only recoil with horror at the mere thought of how limiting KDE must be.

Though if you look closer, you'll see that there are only 3 applications in all of KDE with more than 400 requests - konqueror, kmail, and kopete. Admittedly, they have a lot more. Still, the typical app seems to be down around 50. Krita has 52. I think what is more important is the speed at which requests are granted - the point is that those Gimp requests have been sitting around forever, while Krita has seen heavy development.
Right now, I'd have to agree that the Gimp is still a more powerful app if you can stand the UI, but I'm not sure if that will still be the case or not by the time KOffice 2 is released.

There are 400 feature requests, most of which have not been addressed for years.
