Sign me up for all of these! I wish stamping was just simpler, I'd perfer if the stamp function didn't actually require an image. It's more of an annoyance to have to create the a black image first, then stamp it to a new file, click "no" - everytime - then back into photoshop to merge the place-holder with the second place-holder.
Often I actually just take a screenshot of the texture editor without an image in it, paste in PS and crop the image, which actually seems like less of a hassle to me.
