Thanks for your feedback! I have forwarded your comment to the Epiphany
mailing list. It is quite likely that an epiphany extension could help out
with this particular issue; there is a extension called Image Toolbar
under development that could be used for this when it is finished.

Do you think that your use case occurs often enough for a majority of
users to warrant inclusion in the main browser? If yes, could you work out
the scenario a little bit? (i.e., in what circumstances does an average
user find himself in need of such a feature?*)

kind regards,

For all the time i have used GNOME, a simple drag 'n drop of any image
i needed from a page did the trick. However, it can't be trivial to
create a mozilla extension that fulfils these tasks if it isn't already
existent.
