Everything's great when smearing high-contrast areas, but when you want 
to smear, say, two dark shadowed areas, the tool stops working 
completely :( I might have to make a bug report...

Interesting, I'll have to look at that myself.

do you have your opacity setting for the tool ok?  Its mode?  (sometimes I have
multiply on and nothing seems to work)  how about brush dynamics?

I just filled a layer with a dark pattern and it seemed to work with varying
degrees of opacity and rate...

This is another bug that seems to occur exactly when I don't want it to. 
As in everything is working fine now that I want to produce an example :/

Every time it happens I make sure to try all the options to fix the 
problem, but nothing usually works. I even tried a side-by-side 
comparison between 2.2 and 2.6. Version 2.6 definitely seemed "broken" 
somehow.

But today, everything seems all right...
