Cinepaint supports 16/32 bit
Cinepaint supports 16/32 bit color depths as well as CMYK support for commercial printing. Where GIMP doesn't support 16/32 only 8 bit color depth and only RGB, not native CMYK. Hence why professional photographers would find Cinepaint preferable over GIMP for commercial printing and photography. Good website on Cinepaint. http://jcornuz.wordpress.com/

What does Cinepaint do for photographers than GIMP doesn't? I thought the point of Cinepaint was that it was for film, rather than stills?

I've never really found out what Cinepaint was truly for ;)
AKA FilmGIMP
Cinepaint was originally called FilmGIMP, and it was specifically geared towards touching up films - post-processing graphics work. It's used in "proper" films - the stuff on their site is from The Last Samurai, IIRC.
