In Ella CMS, we are considering switching our custom image formatter to sorl (with some additional wrapper to allow for named formats), but there is one dealbreaker that effectively prevents us from doing so. We need to support important area box, which is very often used by our target user group (mostly online news websites).

For each Photo, we need to be able to define **important box** which is an area, that should not be ever cropped. For reference, see https://github.com/ella/ella/blob/cleanup/ella/photos/formatter.py#L82.

Is there any chance you can add support for this kind of thing?
