Spectacle isn't intended to be a general-purpose image handling app. Once the screenshot has been exported to GIMP, it's not in Spectacle anymore; it's GIMP's job at that point to offer a nice "Export to Imgur" function or whatever other tools you want. Since GIMP doesn't yet offer that feature, your best bet is to save it in GIMP and use Dolphin's own "Export to Imgur" feature to get it up there quickly.
