I can't find it right now but I remember seeing a video at a dev conference, and a GIMP dev was taking questions.

A user asked if GIMP would be adding support for a feature. It was something related to printing, I wanna say either 32-bit color or CMYK. The GIMP dev spent the rest of their time trying to convince them that the feature was a bad thing and that they didn't want it or need it.

That mindset is why GIMP remains bad.

It is a mindset I often see in bad open source projects.

Yeah, I had the same reaction when Steve Jobs said Flash was a bad thing and users didn't need it. This mindset is why iPhone remains bad.
