Deckle edge around a graphic

On another list an earnest soul, obviously working in something like MSWord, wanted a way to put a deckle edge around a "pullout" which I presume is a graphic. Here is a quote:

"I'm trying to find a software program that would allow a pull-out to look like a letter - that is, instead of just a straight-lined or wavy box, something that looks like it has ragged edges. anyone out there have any experience with this?"

Now I am sure that with some fiddling one could create a deckle edge graphic and then dupe it around a graphic. But is there a more straightforward method in Gimp?
