Suggestions for new Graphic Effects

Yeah, I know, the ST is still busy hunting down bugs and updating. But what about when they're done? I'd like to see a few new graphic effects. Although the only one I can really think of is the Stretch Efffect. You can add suggestions if you think of them!

More on Stretch Effect:
It would work sort of like on the Vector Editor where you can stretch a costume. It should be perfectly calibrated to the Size variable, so that if you decrease the size the exact same amount as increasing the Stretch effect, the sprite will squish into itself. Positive numbers shoulds stretch it horizontally and negative numbers should stretch it vertically. So if I set Stretch Effect to 10 and Size to 90, the sprite would keep the same width but get shorter, thus squishing vertically. Stretch Effect should also rotate with the sprite, so if I stretched my sprite and turned it, it would be just like stretching and turning on Vector Editor.

Any other ideas?

I'd like a blur effect, it was in Scratch 1.2. It was fairly laggy running Squeak (which is based off technology made in the early 80s), but should be more smooth here. Also, I wonder if flash player can handle a water ripple effect.

I'd just like the effects like colour and pixelate to not mess up a project. Add in one of those blocks anywhere in http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/42697094/ and have fun trying to play it.
SPOILER ALERT: this project I just mentioned + colour effect = lag + unfixable bugs + frustration at why Flash removed Pixelbender.

Fixing the broken ones before adding new ones is probably smarter.

Support for stretch and blur, although I agree the current ones should be fixed first.

Support, but the stretch block should be more like a resize block. Like “Resize to 300X130” and then it stretches to those proportions.
