I think I had some difficulty cropping the snippet (png) in that the result had no padding at all, but I'm guessing that can be overcome. Certainly with the use cases you suggest, the defaults would need to change, and C-c C-c would need to act as you describe, but that wouldn't be an issue if we can define seperate 'modes' for the different ways of working (I think for now the 'modes' can be considered mutually exclusive).
