Believe it or not, this already (partially) exists! It's called the
`snapshot` method and was patched in many months ago, but appears to
be broken now. (It also doesn't capture native controls or video.)
Thus, it has gone undocumented.
I've been meaning to fix and get it to give us perfect screenshots.
So, yeah, I'm in favor of this feature.
