Colin,

No... It's too complicated. Image editor is not designed to work as well. And look my comment #1. You want to play with JPEG in editor => saving transformations using JPEG format is lossy. This is the same problem in Gimp or Photoshop.

Using lossless format as TIFF or PNG is the ultimate solution

Also, if you use JPEG to save an image from editor, there is a red text warning 
on the saveas dialog about this format.

For me, it's a workflow problem.

Gilles
