I have found this Github Project for an opencv/python based frame detection and cropping plugin.

Maybe its possible to implement it in an upcoming version.  
Cropping the Pictures is by far the worst part of all o the work.  
Hope this can be helpful

Hi,

Yes, there has been some discussion on it here: [Intelligent Cropping of Negative Scans](https://forums.negativelabpro.com/t/intelligent-cropping-of-negative-scans/401) - including a post from the creator of that proof of concept.

May be worth popping back in over at the thread!
