 This should somehow mention that you are modifying picture; I would not
 want a software in Debian that allows anyone to manipulate the
 coordinate system of the real world, as I might not find the way home
 then ;-)

If you discriminate against my legitimate need to manipulate the
coordinate system of the real world, you are in direct contravention
of DFSG#5!

but that would fail the lonely island test, because you can’t change the
world coordinate system without the original author of the program
noticing!

But you would be able to change any lonely island in something else,
like put it in the middle of a crowded city or something. So i'm not
sure it still stands.
