yes, I agree that the on-canvas brush editor would get in the way if I just 
want to change the size quickly. 
But I would still want to have the on-canvas editor, is indeed a neat idea for 
other options, like changing the brush's softness, or for other complicated 
paintops. For example in sumi-e there are two ways of resizing it, by chaging 
the radius option or the scale factor, I usually have to play with both so the 
brush is big enough and yet doesn't eat my cpu away with each stroke.
