You wouldn't expect Photoshop to be immediately usable for a newbie either. I've always been completely stumped by Photoshop, but I haven't spent enough time in it to expect otherwise.

True, but I've been using GIMP a long time - more than a decade. Used it for years longer and years before I used Adobe CS. Taken a number of tutorials on it. Will always be super clunky.
All I really want is Fireworks. Never found a true replacement for it.
To be fair, photoshop probably has more people working on UX than the entire team which maintains Gimp. Of course it will be better in that regard.
