The example pictures where they used The Gimp look pretty impressive for
removing objects and doing a context-aware fill. If I didn't know better,
I'd have no idea something was removed.

But the UI is pretty bad. The latest release (2.8) supposedly improved the
UI and there is supposed to be a working single-window mode. Maybe I should
give it another spin.
