# TODO: Optimize the region storage. Right now I'm copying the whole image,
# because later when the selection is melded into the canvas, it currently
# falls under the same singular undo action.
# for the case of selection, because later, when the selection is melded into the canvas,
# it _implicitly updates_ the undo action, by changing the document without creating a new Action.
# This is the intended behavior, in that it allows the user to undo the
# selection and any changes to it as one action. But it's not efficient for large images.
# I could:
# - Update the region when melding to be the union of the two rectangles.
# - Make Action support a list of regions, and add the new region on meld.
