I should qualify that with "but we still want such a tool", since I am 
assuming Krita does not want to forsake the digital painting style. 
(Just because "digital" brushes are not an accurate simulation of real 
media doesn't mean they don't have their place, of course.)

That said, I wouldn't object to adding an "airbrush mode" to the regular 
"digital" paintbrush, the way PS did in 6->7.
