Focal point

Could you implement a focal point feature for images in the slider and hero element. This allows to set a point anywhere in the image that will be the focus in responsive mode. It already exists in Dawn theme slider, but their slider itself sucks.
On the image Joined for example the smartphone version of this image in the slider will focus on the white guitar. I could have chosen to put the focal point on the guitar player or elsewhere.
Comin' from WP we had this in every type of slider and hero section from 3rd party plugins and it's very handy to ensure that relevant part of the image will be shown on smartphones and tablets.
Would be a great asset.

Hello, the focal point feature is not working at all. Useless for now.

frederic consavela: I just tried it on my store and I see it is working fine. Please check this video and try it on your end again https://www.loom.com/share/4f8d0cb68b7b4f2a97df70878976eb40
Note: the Focal point feature can only work when you set the Image fit option to Cover. It will not work when you set the crop size for the image.

Anna Nguyen: No it's not. The purpose of a focal point is to tell the browser what area to focus on when reducing the size of the window. Very useful for responsive layouts.
But with yours, you can set a focal point, but it doesn't work when changing the size of the windows. In your video you only show that you can set a focal point. Buit you didn't try to resize the window so you can't tell it's working...

frederic consavela: I tried it on my end but it works fine on all devices. This video is on my end https://www.loom.com/share/1c5480df9b644f31b30f9f3ab80bb016
If possible, please try it on your end and help me with a short video.
Thank you
