I suspect that some users have a huge sense of entitlement. Thoroughly undeserved. The users are not the most important component of an open source project, not even close. And any neutral party reading the gimp mailing list currently would identify the majority of the complaints to be unreasonable since they amount to "this change sucks, change it back or we'll stop using this software".
