Comment (by kadamwhite):

 From @joemcgill in Slack:

 > There are some plugins that implement this, but it’s not something we
 have UI for in core, nor a simple API to implement at the moment.
 >
 > All editing in core is currently handled on the server side and not
 something that we have any need to expose to third party editors, but I
 like the idea of being able to build decoupled image editors on top of the
 REST API, so it would be worth doing a quick feasibility PoC.
