Describe the feature you'd like

It would be very handy to right click to a photo and add simple annotation like arrows, blurr-boxes or a stamp which increases numbers with every click.

Resizing images is possible by now, but a simple cropping feature is missing

Describe the benefits this would bring to existing BookStack users

Doing annotations inside bookstack will provide a much faster workflow instead of doing those with 3rd party apps.

I use it alot in our ticket system https://osticket.com/

The "stamping" feature can be seen on the "flameshot" screenshot app: https://flameshot.org/

The benefit to editable annotations inside Bookstack is that you can update those instead of doing a new screenshot, add annotation there an copy a final screenshot to Bookstack.

Can the goal of this request already be achieved via other means?

it can be only achieved by 3rd party apps

Thanks for the request @mb1811, but issue #3350 already exists to request fundamental support for image annotations so I'll therefore close this off as a duplicate.
