Yes, you are correct. Personally, I think that Recordmydesktop would  
be the best solution (cropping out undesirable elements), however, I  
have written a Script-fu which somewhat alleviates the problem of not  
being able to "replay" the UNDO history. The script is rather simple  
and merely adds a command to the File menu which saves a time-stamped  
snapshot of the current state of the image. This allows you to step  
through the UNDO history, saving a snapshot at each step.

(gtk)recordmydesktop can be configured to record only a certain area
of the screen and ignore the cursor/mouse:
