I actually find resize/crop controls redundant in the Save for Web dialog -
I usually prepare the image beforehand while keeping it in a native
(lossless) format, then just expect to use Save for Web to export the image
for upload to a website without touching the original.

Instead, I'd want to see the colour subsampling setting in the export plugin
- some images just can't be made good looking with 2x2 colour subsampling.

Except for Optimize, these settings aren't directly related to file size
(although using Progressive encoding usually does lower the image size a
bit).

Progressive just changes the way image is stored, and how browser displays
it over a slow link. However, with Internet Explorer browser, progressively
encoded images load exactly the opposite way you'd expect - nothing will be
displayed until whole image is downloaded, then the image appears all at
once.

Baseline makes the JPEG file more compatible while sacrificing
quality/increasing file size.
