Not clear; iscissors uses a custom tile manager which supplies tiles
containing gradient/direction information.  This way, the expensive
calculation of this info is delayed until it is actually needed by the
selection-boundary walking code (we don't know ahead of time where the
boundary is, but we can guess that it's not going to include every tile in
the image).
