One slightly irritating thing is that Linux Journal keeps refering to
Film Gimp as a compositer.  Yeah, it can do compositing, but it is
extremely tedious and probrably should only be used when hand touch up
is needed.

That is, unless Rythem & Hues has done a lot of scripting work to
allow for animated selections...
