What are the use-cases to do anything but crop?  Cropping is needed for CSS
spriting.  Are there any significant number of existing pages that highlight a
particular part of an image, and which could make good use of the ability to do
that via fragments instead of JS?  Keeping in mind that if they could do it
with fragments, they probably would have zero control over styling, unless
provision has been made for that.

However, I don't see why this should differ for HTML UAs vs. other contexts
involving URLs, so I don't see why it belongs in the HTML spec.  In particular,
why would the behavior in HTML differ from that for CSS applied to XML?
