McSink DA, available from Sumex (I got it from comp.binaries.mac) allows 
something like this.  You move an icon-sized rect around on the screen and
click when you get to what you want "ICONized."  Well, actually it turns
what is in the rectangle into hex codes.  I guess then you could stuffhex
or something after that.

Regardless, all editing in McSink is done in the clipboard, so anything
"hex"ed can be pasted just about anywhere.
