Just a few updates on this. There will be no need for complex IPC
communications between the plug-ins and the core with regards to the UI,
the UI will simply live in the process of the plug-in, and we will
extend libgimp with means to create this UI so that it gets a unified
look between different plug-ins. Also, we don't need to port all
plug-ins, only the frequently used ones. We need to be backwards
compatible anyway so no need in converting the obscure plug-ins to use
the new UI.
