Yesterday i asked about help with bounds in developer help. And i have sugestion, maybe is posible to rebuild bounds system for support more than block square.
I thinkink about somethink like this:
src.bound_height="1,8 ; 1,16 ; 1,24 ; 1,32"
src.bound_width="1,8 ; 1,16 ; 1,24 ; 1,32"

The undocumented bounds var (it's actually the central var that controls bounds) was built as a string specifically to allow support for expansion at some point, so a concept similar to this isn't infeasible.

isn't infeasible. You don't understand how many tears of joy I'm crying at you speaking these words. |
I'm kinda cross-double-posting here, but here's a solid suggestion for how the syntax could work without needing new vars

If you use the alternative style, there must be the same amount of params used in both vars.
The params define the bottom left pixel to top right pixel of the sub-bounding box, in relation to the tile.
Not sure on ye olde feasibility, but seems like a solid suggestion.
