About the original topic of this thread, thank you Chris for the note about this survey. I was hesitating about forwarding the email to this list and/or feature the link in the Developer Relations Weekly Summary, and you moved faster. :) A technical theme for IEG would be useful to channel

I think right now we are scratching the surface. We have some big ideas about everything from basic adjustments to full on derivative tracking and non-detailed destructive image editing. While we are prototyping and proving the concept, it's all really going to come down to what features we can

Awesome! Even basic editing like crop/flip/rotate is *super* helpful for many, many common cases. This looks like it could be integrated straight into the upload pipeline to help fix up images as you're getting them into the system... (I'd also love to see a multi-layer raster editor that can
