Dedicated tool for arrows
Description On the toolbar where the shapes, lines etc are, there should be a dedicated icon and tool for creating arrows. This would make Pinta an excellent quick annotation especially for screenshots.
Just to make sure, you're aware that the Line tool has the option to create arrows (and Pinta should remember your settings for the tool), so this is more about discoverability and easy access?

YES! that is exactly it
I feel like Pinta currently caters to moderately complex tasks/workflows, but it has a big chance to ALSO cater to those who want to do hundreds of little annotation tasks for screenshots etc
If this takes away too much from how you guys want the default flow to be, maybe a different "mode"? dedicated to quick edits and annotations
I don't have any real objection to making a separate arrow tool ,but there would be a few things to consider like whether the arrow options would be removed from the Line/Curve tool or the arrow tool is basically just an "alias" for the same tool

I think it would be duplication and wouldn't really give real benefits. The tool is there as a line tool and having the cap options is intuitive enough (at least I believe so).
