CropTool fix/replacement (Community Wishlist/W16/fr)

This page is a translated version of the page Community Wishlist/W16 and the translation is 14% complete.

Description

CropTool is a valuable tool on Commons, but its maintainer has apparently left, and it's been having issues lately, such as timing out when trying to load photos with this metadata attribute:

Orientation	Tournée de 90° dans le sens horaire

See past discussion at Commons_talk:CropTool and https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Village_pump/Technical/Archive/2024/04#h-New_tool_for_cropping_and_rotating_images_(proposal)-20240412081300

Realize this would involve rebuilding a tool but hope you all take interest in this (https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons_talk:CropTool#c-Sannita_(WMF)-20240319183900-Ooligan-20240319133900).

Merci !
