What happens when your application menu crosses the window boundaries? What happens if you drag a window partially offscreen? What happens when you minimize a window?
The behavior of recording the contents of a single window is really hard to get right. Because of that i didn't make it part of my initial design/mockup. There's nothing keeping people from designing/implementing this in version 2.0 (for example). >From what i've heard, OS-X allows you to basically drag a window onscreen which indicates how a screenshot(/video?) will be cropped. Something like that may become possible once we have a stable compositing manager. OS-X also has a transparent window for the screenshot/video controls that isn't actually part of the screenshot/video. Again, that will only become possible when we have a compositing manager.
