Worked: (optional)

Short description of error
[Please fill out a short description of the error here]

The clone tool in the image editor in paint mode is disfunctional.

In 3D View you set the area to clone with ctrl and mouse click. This sets the 3D cursor to the mouse position, and this area gets used then for the clone operation.

The image editor has no cursor in Paint mode. Ctrl and mouse click does nothing. The clone tool does not work.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
[Please describe the exact steps needed to reproduce the issue]
[Based on the default startup or an attached .blend file (as simple as possible)]

Open Blender. Open image editor. Create an image. Switch to Paint mode. Try to use the Clone tool in the tool shelf.

The design for the Clone Tool might not be ideal (let's just call it sort of horrible), but it does work as intended.
For it to work you need to set a Clone Image in the Brush Panel. You can then drag the image with Right Mouse Button.
So, not a bug :)

Might be a nice ToDo for someone though, to make Ctrl Click to pick clone source work the same as in 3D Viewport.
