You're absolutely right, I forgot about this point although I had it on
my mind.
As far as I'm concerned screenshots can be either a part of the window
or the full window. Indeed the advantage of the full window is that the
context is not lost, but I don't think that it's justified all the time.
For full window screenshots we must indeed use a common size, 1024x768
sounds good to me (it's very close to what I used for the Scheduler's
manual screenshots).
Cheers
