I meant to ask at Brewpal last night . . .
I had a client whose site uses TinyMCE, ImageField and Insert ask for the ability to choose the cropping region for an image and then place the image within the body of the node.
I found:
http://drupal.org/project/epsacrop
http://drupal.org/project/imagefield_crop
http://drupal.org/project/imagecrop
and TinyMCE's $41 MCImageManager
Only the last one appears to allow cropping of an image that a user can place in the body of a node.
I thought it was worth checking if anyone knew of other modules or if I perhaps failed to configure one of the ones I found properly to allow the image to be inserted.

Insert with Image Resize Filter
Another option is using Insert module with Image Resize Filter (Nate Haug - aka quicksketch - presented on this a year or so ago when the 'Bots were in town). Insert allows you to put the image in the body of the node, and then the filter allows you to drag and resize the image, even using imagecache presets. It's resizing, and not cropping, but it might do what you need.
