I think the hardest part is designing the interface. How would you specify the frame to dump ? Consider that the same frame number can result in different rendering due to gotoframe and actions and looping. Maybe the easiest solution is adding a keystroke to dump current frame, but that would be about equivalent to using an external software to take a screenshot...
