Although new features are being added all the time, GIMP is currently missing some major features. Some of this functionality isn't essential — it may make life easier, but with a little effort it can be lived with. Some missing features can be added via plugins and extensions, but inevitably some users will come across show-stoppers — features without which they simply can't do their jobs.
So let's start with the biggest issues, bearing in mind that the goalposts are constantly moving: if GIMP doesn’t do it already, then there’s probably someone coding away furiously to make it happen, be they part of the official development team or not. However, for now, if you absolutely need the following features, then GIMP won’t be of much use to you.
