Have you ever heard of not being able to crop photos supplied by the client for use in their designs?

No thats kinda weird, cropping is a compositional technique... unless they specifically say so, it should be a.o.k. It's part of your job description tell them.

put it this way, it wouldn't surprise me one bit. clients are monkeys

some rights-managed photography doesn't allow for cropping or anything beyond minor color correction. depends on the licensing.

have they provided a license for usage?
it should be on paper..
or else they're just whining themselves.

yes, ive heard of it from some professional photographers.
ive know some photographers ask for a visual of a cropped photo before they agree to it or even to do the cropping themselves.
never had to deal with it/them myself though.
good luck

yes I work at a photography studio, and we sometimes note that in the liscenes.
It's because (generally) if you only use a partial piece of the photograph,etc it may become unreconigzable from the original form.
but we only do this with fashion photos and nothing else.
