Thanks Ofnuts

I keep learning new useful stuff here.

This is pretty much a hack. There is no direct function in Gimp to obtain the "offset path" (even though I believe there is one created internally when rendering the line)

Select>From path
should be
Select>To path

You're completely right. I'll fix that.
