I see Keith is using it too, so I guess it does work. I couldn't get it 
to do that. I'm not sure what was different about my stack, but trying 
to get a snapshot of the non-current card did nothing.

I see Keith is using "import snapshot" and specifying a card. That isn't 
in the docs and I always got an error when I tried to specify an object 
with "import", I could only specify one with "export".
