Comment (by corradomatt):

 I really like this idea but why couple it to the customizer so closely? I
 realize that we want all theme design and layout decisions to go through
 the customizer but it would also be great to allow usage of image cropping
 on upload outside of the customizer. Like in the featured image thumbnail
 of a post or (dare I say) in a front-end interface for non-logged in users
 to interface with a WP website in some way (think custom post type that
 can be generated by guest users as an example).
