...Will GIMP ever have a select tool similar to the one in Adobe PS? Just curious, 'cause it's hard to, per se, have to select an animal and I would have to use the lasso tool and zoom in to get everything selected without missing parts of the fur.

it's hard to explain.

Would the Foreground Select tool be something like what you are looking for?

And to those on Windows I suggest checking out Jan Ruegg's fork that improves the tool.

Marco,

You've been long enough around to know that the "when" questions don't make sense :)

Jan ported his matting code to GEGL about a year ago, so the right kind of question is "Does it look like I'm going to rework the existing tool to use that code?" :)
