Not creation.  Distribution.  If you write (or bundle) a proprietary
plugin and distribute same, and then some GIMP author can build a case
for some of your code being a derivative work of The GIMP's code
(arguably feasible), then if he/she can prove that, you've violated
his/her copyright by using his/her code in a fashion not allowed by its 
licence.

KDE's looking better all the time.  Quite sweet.
