Research direction
Start by checking how python-montage exposes mSubimage_pix and whether the Montage 3.3_2 command-line tool exists. Compare the mentioned aplpy.FITSFigure.recenter() and kapteyn.FITSimage.set_limits() methods; the work is complete only when a subimage can be saved as a FITS file, but the issue does not identify an implementation entry point or test.

Description
There is a mSubimage_pix command in python-montage, which calls the mSubimage_pix command line tool,
which doesn't exist in Montage @3.3_2 (and looking at the change log never has).
I thought I could do it with the aplpy.FITSFigure.recenter() or the kapteyn.FITSimage.set_limits() methods, but apparently both only make a subimage for plotting, and don't offer the possibility to save the subimage as a FITS file?
Would be useful to have it in python-montage or aplpy, though.
