Sure, makes sense.  My two cents is, it seems like a whole lot of
people need to grab an image from the gallery and plop a chunk of a
certain size out of that image.  Ofcourse, doing that by hand is
possible and wouldn't be all that hard, but it would involve a hole
lot of typing for us app developers and lead to poor user experience
since they will have to relearn this function from app to app.  I
would be simply thrilled if this functionality were to become a part
of the SDK.  It's reusable and generic enough to make the cut, I
think.
