  I haven't forgotten your suggestion, but it still doesn't have the
thing unfortunately.  But, I can show how you would do.  I made a
little Etoys project.  Download this:

and save it somewhere.

  If you resume this project, you see two buttons at the bottom of
screen.  Click on "Paint" to start painting.  Don't worry about these
obscure four buttons in the painting tool.  If you are done, press
"Save".  It puts the painted picture into the Sugar's clipboard, and
Etoys quits.  As simple as that, and you can make this kind of
customization in minutes.
