Snipping Tool needs a "Cut Out" tool, remove the middle of a screenshot, not just crop the edges

We've all taken a screenshot of a long page or wide window and ended up with a bunch of empty space or irrelevant content in the middle. Cropping only trims the edges, there's no built-in way to cut a slice out of the middle and stitch the rest back together.

Snagit has had this as "Cut Out" for years and it's genuinely useful. I submitted a Feedback Hub suggestion asking Microsoft to add the same thing to Snipping Tool. If you'd find this useful, an upvote would really help it get on the radar:
