And perhaps a so-small addition to the X display of the image
while it renders (and once it is finished) would be to output
the coordinates of any user-selected region on stdout or
something similar.

Then all Unix users would be all happy to feed the coordinates
into a script of their own in order to re-render that part
of the image. And even zooming on it, who knows?
