Gconf was good for it's time. Even now it isn't horrible, we just have
something better.
dbus is very good as IPC mechanisms go. From everything I know, much
nicer than corba or com/dcom (though those also do more). Better than
dcop, which heavily inspired it I believe.

Actually I do not see anywhere where gimp even depends on gconf.
And I haven't seen any shitstorms about gconf or dbus, unless this
thread qualifies...
