What it means is that instead of taking into consideration the ICC profile embedded into an image (whichever profile it is) it will just treat everything as sRGB. Also since most 2.8 themes would end up broken in 2.9.x, themes are not migrated from GIMP Color Management submenu. Note that themes and icon themes are now separate: you can easily mix your favorite UI with various icon sets. The existing icon theme from past releases of GIMP has also been preserved, and users can freely switch between available icon themes and easily add their own ones. The new UI themes are accompanied by symbolic icons originally created by Barbara Muraus and Jakub Steiner, and heavily updated and completed by Klaus Staedtler. Note that we still consider this feature a work in progress, as dark themes still need some fine-tuning (especially regarding the color of inactive menu items). The system theme has been preserved for users who prefer a completely consistent look of user interfaces across all desktop applications. The new version features several new themes by Benoit Touchette in various shades of gray: Lighter, Light, Gray, Dark, Darker. Revamped User Interface and Usability Changes ¶ Please refer to the Roadmap for the list of major pending changes.
GIMP 2.9.4 is quite reliable for production work, but there are still loose ends to tie, which is why releasing stable v2.10 will take a while. Additionally, dozens of bugs have been fixed, and numerous small improvements have been applied. After half a year in the works, GIMP 2.9.4 delivers a massive update: revamped look and feel, major improvements in color management, as well as production-ready MyPaint Brush tool, symmetric painting, and split preview for GEGL-based filters. We have just released the second development version of GIMP in the 2.9.x series.
