That's not entirely correct (though it's the most widely-accepted
solution, I think).
I had built an extension some time ago, but it needed a lot of
work, and I just wound up trashing it. You can use xvfb (X Virtual
Frame Buffer) on *NIX systems without running X itself, a stripped
down Mozilla navigate to and display the page, and then snap a
"screen" shot of the buffer. Not very economical, but it would work.
