Seems that a near-perfect psd import/export would be the killer feature that enables it to compete with Photoshop. That would be huge.

I highly doubt if Krita has the man power to do this. They've been developing a new text system for more than one year. The new text system isn't designed to be compatible with Photoshop.

And even if it is, rendering text just like Photoshop is just a tiny step towards rendering everything like Photoshop.
