My gut feeling tells me that they will tell that fedora can change the
name to gimp if that fits better, most upstream gnome people to who I
talked to told me that on such minor things gnome lets downstream
customize as they need for them.

I'll talk to upstream and report back and tell you if my gut feeling
was spot on or wrong.
