Better GIMPing

[Herbie <technowombat@yahoo.com>]

I'm wondering if I'm missing something fundamental here, when using GIMP I 
have occasion to use fonts that have non-standard symbols in them.

In order to access them in GIMP, I have to fire up Abiword, use Insert > 
Symbol (CTRL + M), Select the appropriate font from the dropdown, find the 
symbol in the symbol table, and either cut and paste it into GIMP, or if 
it's a symbol I'll be using a lot, convert it back into a normal font to 
find out it's 'real' symbol, and then find the UNICODE value for that, 
then when using GIMP's text editor I can do CTRL + SHIFT + U and enter the 
unicode value.
