That's what I tried to say before. It won't be possible with the most 
basic tools, but there are still quite a few screen capture tools out 
there that are either free or quite cheap, and easy and fast to use, 
that can meet the requirements we laid out for screenshots.

It would not be acceptable for me to require full-fledged image editing 
tools (like Photoshop or Gimp) to create documentation screenshots.

Could be. Could you do a sample, with a description of the necessary steps?
