Given the reason "at" was added (for the Project Browser thumbnails),
and the generally more useful object-rendered snapshots vs snippets of
the composite buffer, it's not surprising that this extension is limited
as it is.
Still, for the sake of completeness and consistency it may be useful to
file an enhancement request for that.
Anyone here know if one has been submitted? I've been having bad luck
with the RQCC's search lately.
