more gimp hacking… Made a decent start on a feature I’ve
wanted to add for about 5 years now. “font brushes”. The
idea being you can use a vector font, render it to whatever
size you need, and use it as a brush.

Next steps are to do the ui bits so you can adjust
them.

After that, the obvious next step is SVG brushes.
That would be very cool.
