Dennis, I think screencasting is a neat idea but the hardware most likely to run Sugar won't have the horsepower to capture a full size screen and in the case of the XO might not have enough disk space to do it either. See my other emails for my experiences making videos like this.
It may do a lot of good for us to create these kinds of videos ourselves so kids can see them and share them with friends, but technically it may be impractical to build a feature for doing this into Sugar.
