Comment (by joehoyle):

 Yeah, I was thinking about a transformation API, but I think that would be
 very limiting and not that worth doing. By allowing a blob upload, REST
 API clients can do whatever transformation / filters they want - allowing
 crop etc as transforms would be mostly a dead end IMO. I think even today
 if you were to implement this in the admin, you'd actually want to post a
 blob back, and do all transformation in JavaScript, say on a `<canvas>`.
