Well, you can open a script-fu console and use the "gimp-rect-select"
command (ugh). But no, there is no reasonable way to do it right
now.

A few points:
First, jpeg still achieves substantial compression,
and is still lossy, even at a quality setting of 100.
Second, the jpeg docs recommend not using quality settings
above 95, because they greatly increase the file size without
improving the image quality.
Third, there is no way

Yes, these should work, although there are a couple of things worth pointing out.
First, the blur filters ignore the selection when computing their result, and only
apply it afterwards -- this makes your approach work, but means that it can take
a very long time if the slicing is fine. Second, if

To my eyes this image looks sharp in the lower 2/3, and uniformly blurred
in the upper 1/3. What you _do_ get using this method is a nice smooth

For what it's worth, I went ahead and implemented a true variable blur filter,

Dynamic text is no longer needed, because the things it did are
now done by the regular text tool (and done a lot better, too!).
