We love your cropper, and we use it all the time, I guess that is evidenced by how many features we've thought up for it.
I know I haven't had time to work on my cropper in a while, I'll put down some feature suggestions here in case you get more time than I do. :-)
Images of the same aspect ratio but different sizes in one go.
Currently we crop the biggest size image and use image gen to get the smaller ones, this works great, but it would be 'nice' if it was rolled into the cropper in such a way that the user only selects one 'crop' of each aspec ratio and the cropper creates the different sizes. eg: 100x100 and 60x60
Variable height (width) crops
Often a website design will have fixed width for an image and a portrait or landscape is simply a different height of the fixed width. now this is a lot more difficult to deal with in the UI but would be a great feature to have. (different from 'keep aspect')
Edit in the data-type
Currently one must delete and recreate crop info if it is wrong, which is easy enough... so this request is just a tiny nice to have.

Box sizing
already mentioned in another post.
+1 for variable width or height.
+1 for fixed width and variable height
I haven't tried it out yet, but it looks like this package [http://our.umbraco.org/projects/backoffice-extensions/image-cropper-extended] might allow for the variable height.
Also check out http://our.umbraco.org/projects/website-utilities/eksponent-cropup which comes at the problem from a completely different angle.
