Thanks for clarifying that. Simple Scan does not support scanning partial pages (it uses the full scan area always).

I support the idea of this workflow though it wouldn't be the default. This needs some thought as to how or if it can be cleverly integrated into simple-scan (maybe through a plugin) or this is better left to "Advanced Scan".

First thoughts on how to integrate this:
- Add a new item to the drop-down menu on the scan button "Draft".
- Clicking this scans a page in draft mode - the page is clearly marked as a draft with "draft" written above it
- Clicking scan rescans the draft page and uses any defined crop area to set the scan area
