Nothing really new. Even Stalin had photos changed to remove persons from a 
photo or "clean" trash away.

He had it done the hard way, by hand-painting the photos (or negatives). 
Today it is just faster, cheaper and more perfect. As long as there are 
photos around they have been altered and faked. Every photo set is a 
manipulation, anyway. If you go to a photographer he will try his utmost to 
show your nice side in a photo.

Apart from this: the tool (if it really works this nice in reality, a big 
if) would be very nice. I have done my share of painting a grey sky blue, a 
patchy brown lawn green, do away with trashbins and so on myself.

I sometimes feel like I'm in Wonderland - I'm painting the roses red. ;-)
