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 looooove to see a multi-layer raster editor that can work with
Gimp's .xcf files, which I believe we allow uploads of... that's more work
but maybe later! :D)
