Warning: Unless your crop is aligned with JPEG block boundaries
(generally 8x8 or 16x16, often 8x8 for the Y channel and 16x16 for the
Cb and Cr channels, starting at the top left corner of the image. I
don't know if GIMP uses 16x16 blocks at all when exporting. It may
stick to 8x8 for all channels?), cropping is a very destructive
operation, likely to increase file size significantly at equal
perceptual quality. It's even more destructive if the internal
representation is 8-bit (which of course is not the case with
goat-invasion).
