My thoughts:

* The warping must be done inside of the stroke interpolator, to handle wrapping correctly (eg. when you paint off the right edge onto the left)

* During painting, a good UI would be to expose the tile currently being painted on.

That is:

I

if I is the image, and the user paints off to the right:

II

and then down by the image height

II I
and left by the image width
II
II

then stops painting:
I

* Ideally, it would apply to all paint tools and all sampling tools (so eg. you could use it with Levels, Curves, Eyedropper, ).

* It would be nice to have it applicable to Fuzzy Select, but probably more work. Same for transformation tools.

Before we go into details, could we try to find out what this feature would actually be good for and if we want to support it? You already figured that it's quite an intrusive change and needs support all over the place.

There are already two quite different suggestions in our bug-tracker that deal with the problem of texture painting (see http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=327175). So it seems to make sense to think about this more. Who actually needs this feature and how is it going to be used?
