This can be useful, for example, if you want to apply a strictly linear component like smudge in a radial manner. You convert to cartesian, apply the linear transformation of your choice and then apply polar coordinates once more. A solution for non square images is possible, in theory, if the aspect ratio is known. Based on filters by uberzev and byRo. I added some Color Controls as comments. You can change them to your hearts desire, but they do nothing.</p>
