That is a nice story about open source to the sad but not so bitter sounding (BOO-YAH!) end.
I am not a user (or even Gnome user), but FWIW, I looked and Adrian's eog_window_cmd_copy_image is still there almost 11 years later, only renamed in a minor way ("cmd" -> "action").
I am no expert on its churn, but the Eye Of Gnome project seems still quite active (last commit yesterday). That file src/eog-window.c itself has already had more commits since his patch than before it.
{ Not to suggest that code durability/quality is (or was) the whole point, but I thought being less "tears in rain" than it might have been took the inspirational factor up a notch and so seemed worth sharing here. }
