Cool looking tool.
Yes, it is akin to sprite rippers and since it doesn't actually rip animations, it's actually not as dangerous to the original artist as sprite ripping (or at least on the surface it seems).
That said, as a person who has toiled MANY YEARS to generate content for the many games you kids play, I can understand not wanting your work; taken out of context, messed with or even "analyzed" (ie: rotoscoped and ripped-off, probably).
When you actually create something and you put your heart and soul into (even if it's a fricken bottle for licensed game #3), you feel some form of attachment to that asset. Thinking that it's out there and someone can take it and do whatever without consent can be unnerving.
PS. Getting paid does not preclude the right to feel violated.
It's kind of like someone taking your car for a joyride, while you're sleep. Even if they got it detailed and filled the tank with gas, they still stole your property or "temporarily borrowed it".
Again, cool tool, though.
