Subject: gscan2pdf: Ability to configure how GIMP is started
Package: gscan2pdf
Version: 0.9.27-0~ppa1
Severity: wishlist

*** Please type your report below this line ***
When GIMP is started under gscan2pdf (Tools/GIMP) it loads the splashscreen and plugins and modules. This adds
time before GIMP becomes available for use. Suggest that either:

1. it is started in a minimal way eg

without splash screen
without fonts
without data (Do not load patterns, gradients, palettes, or brushes. Often useful in non-interactive
situations where start-up time is to be minimized)

eg gimp -s -f -d

all designed to reduce start up time

or

2. provide option that the GIMP is started with a box to enter the start up command line options to be entered (either on each instance of GIMP started or being set as a preference, such as in Edit/Preferences).
