Hi,

I know it's not really productive to moan in bug reports, but you might
want to take a look at the second paragraph in
http://blogs.technet.com/b/office2010/archive/2010/02/01/office-2010
-improvements-for-cropping-pictures.aspx

In particular "Cropping was overwhelmingly the most-used bit of editing
used on pictures, so one of the first things we started work on was
making cropping an easier-to-use and more powerful tool."

That matches my experience, but that assessment is obviously backed by
tons of telemetry data from millions of users.

I'm not really advocating for the grey-out style of cropping (in my
opinion it was a regression rather than an improvement), but visual
cropping of any kind is a very important feature.
