The Fill Patterns popup and Patterns docker allow you to select patterns. It would be handy if they also offered a few simple options to configure the pattern, similar to those available when selecting a texture to use with the pixel brush:
- Scale
- Invert?
- X and Y offset

When filling whole layers with a pattern, a workaround can be achieved by scaling, translating or inverting the layer after filling. If filling a contiguous area (bucket tool), it's a whole lot more complicated to get a correctly scaled pattern fill.
