Export area on layer slices

[Ash]

On a layer slice I think you should have the option to set the document as the Matte (so in the case of the layer being a circle and you export as JPG it will export whatever is behind the circle on your doc in the corners, as an alternative to selecting a single colour).

That sounds like a good idea to me - I know you can achieve the same effect by just creating a slice object instead, but then it's not linked to the object you're interested in anymore, so this setting would serve a purpose for me. I can definitely imagine using this :)
