Not being able to use CMYK is a terrible perspective if you ever get a chance of printing something.

Possibly a kickstarter to code CMYK into gimp would be a good idea? If the gimp team doesn't let you do it, it should be easy enough to fork it with a bit of financial backing from a kickstarter.

CMYK is not exclusive to Photoshop, is it?

I guess one of the main competitors to Photoshop is gimp... last time I checked it had bad support for CMYK (see https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/CMYK_support_in_The_GIM... )

Gimp is just one free alternative, i guess you knew about its cmyk troubles and posted because of that. Why limit yourself to Gimp though? Check.out other alternatives. I posted some in another comment in this thread.
