Smart Trim

Here's a feature idea that I want in a PC graphics program that GraphicConverter has - Smart Trim.
 
What does it do?
 
You open a graphics file, press a keyboard combo, and it automatically crops the picture to minimize the amount of white space.
 
This is probably a super easy feature to code - just find out where the furthest non-white pixels are in the X and Y coordinates, then just crop to it.
 
So... why can't I find a Windows application that does this?
 
Do you have a suggestion?
