proposal for eog development

Hi

There seem to be a big gap between the small and easy kind of
image-viewers as eog and advanced tools as gimp. What I really miss is
some basic features as copy and paste. It should be possible to paste an
image from the clipboard (a screen dump for example). It should be
possible to make a selection, ctrl-c, and then paste that to get a part
of the image as a new image.

That would be awesome and maybe not that very advanced to implement.
