There isn't exactly, but you can cheat: Cut, then Paste. When pasted, the layer shows up centered instead of where it was before.

A simple method is to cut the layer, make the background layer active, and paste the layer back in. It should be centered in the image. You'll have to move it back to its original position in the layer stack after that.

Maybe one of the simplest possible scripts. I hope you have python-fu enabled. Just move it to your plug-ins directory, and set it executable then (no need to do that in windows).It shows up in the python-fu dir.

I wrote a Script-fu to do similar Align tasks http://www.netsoc.tcd.ie/~horkana/dev/gnome/gimp/script-fu/scripts/layer-align.scm

Also Gimp 2.3 includes an align tool in the toolbox.
