Yes, I agree with that. Resize, crop and rotate features are nice to
have but they are not the priority at all. I think that the priority
is having a good upload interface, ability to browse uploaded images
easily and then tools for including images/files in blog entries.

The most basic features would IMHO be crop and resize.
While creating an entry, a user should be able to directy upload one or
many images and use them in his blog entry without entering an image url
by hand.
I would like to see an interface where I cut plug-in my code for that.

No. What kind of features would a plugin for "photo stuff" support?
There is a FileManager interface that can serve as a plugin point but
it does nothing special for files of type "photo"

What do you think about this application?
