Capturing instance images is at the moment only provider driver specific as far as I can tell. Any ex_* functions would be exposing built in provider specific functionality likely not to be found amongst other drivers. As you can imagine certain OS instances have provider specific pre-requisites (eg. OS needs to be shutdown before capture and so on) that'd be another thing to look out for.
