It has no effect on the crop tool preview at all. I had a look at editing the source to change the way the reduced- contrast area around the cropping rectangle is drawn -- a colour swatch on tool options for the crop tool would not be out of line, nor even an opacity slider, as on e.g. the Rotate tool. I found the place (I think) where the cairo outer rectangle is made, so maybe it's a case of adding a fill to that, and passing the colour (and opacity?) as arguments from the crop tool preview function, I'm not sure. I've often wished for a way for Undo to go back to the exact state just before the operation, including e.g. the uncommitted selection that you could edit, the crop ectangle, the perspective grid. It would be clean-warm-dry-black-sock awesome.
