The thought that comes to my mind is localization---if the doc is being translated, setting up a system on a foreign OS, populating it with appropriate test information, and then taking the screenshot can be very time-consuming. Where I work this is such an elaborate process I have taken an English screenshot and Photoshopped it into the foreign language because it actually takes less time.
