I'm developing a technical support web form. It would be very helpful if I could include an area where the user can make a rough sketch of their issue with their mouse. The input would be saved as an image file (transparently to the user) to be included with the other data in the form. Is there any history of this being done with JS or SWF? Any suggestions?
 
There probably is some history with Flash, but I'd look into the canvas element in HTML5 instead.

It has many many features and can be used in the way you want it to.
