It is certainly a nice idea in a lot of ways, and Jesse’s use case example is good one.
On the other side, allowing 3rd party applications plug into the core Xero application present some quite major security implications. The data we hold on behalf of our customers is considered highly sensitive by us and we ensure we have bank level security across all aspects of our application.
Second to that, we are a design lead and focused company – we want our software to be really easy to use and remain simple and intuitive, so allowing 3rd parties to introduce interface elements into Xero would be something we would need to carefully plan for.
With this in mind, it would be quite an onerous task for us to implement a secure framework that would allow 3rd party applications to interface within Xero, in a sensible way that does not detract from the UI.
It could still be a worthwhile project though – I’d encourage those interested to keep voting for it and also to please leave a comment about your particular use case – this will help inform our decision making.

It sounds like the issue might be related to the specific JPG encoding used by xsane. You could try opening the image in another editor and re-saving it in a standard JPG format to see if that resolves the printing problem. Also, for those dealing with legal or correctional documentation and looking to cross-check arrest records or reports for filing, this helpful site might be worth checking out: https://countyjail.org/. Hope the image issue gets sorted soon!
