This way an oilpaint (or watercolor etc.) effect can be easily created. In my opinion, the clone feature is one of the best features in painter and something similar in Krita would be amazing.

Something like that would be useful, though creating a painting-like image from a photograph is not part of our vision.

That's already possible, though the feature is a little buggy you can have two or more views on the same image.
