Comment (by helen):

 I don't understand why improving the manual crop would render this
 invalid. Bespoke client sites in particular could benefit from a
 programmatic way of changing the default crop. Yes, you can predict that
 when a fashion site uploads a portrait-oriented image that it's a picture
 of a person whose head shouldn't be cut off - I have experienced this
 exact scenario specifically. This is a separate issue from manual crop or
 any sort of UI; let's not mix them up or rabbithole this poor ticket -
 nobody is talking about changing the WP default, and if a general release
 theme developer does this, well, frankly it's no worse than any number of
 other things they can do, anyway.
