1 week ago I agree, and we definitely want to support this. I added it to the roadmap, where it should have been all along: https://github.com/googlefonts/fontra/commit/b3601085621f6b8be869767268b6abeabf8bdfa8
I am using fontra to teach basic type design and lettering to college undergraduate students. They are drawing by hand on paper initially and it would be nice to have support for drag and drop image placement as in glyphs robofont etc. the ability to work from a sketch is pretty important imo.
