I don't understand what you mean: you do not have to change the global
"open with" list to open a file with gimp. When Gimp is installed it
should show up in the "open with" list, no need to add it yourself. And
when this is done, you can use the "open with" button in Gwenview
sidebar (or context menu) to open the image with Gimp from within Gwenview.

I didn't say it won't come back. It's just that for now it is not very
high in my list because I don't have a strong need for it ("open with"
works with me). Right now I am using my limited times working on aspects
I consider more important. That does not mean I won't add "external
tools" back or I won't accept (or help someone writing) the code to get
it back.
