Description
I was wondering if there would be a way to build in a sort of functionality to give $psEditor access to the visible editor screen coordinates? I think there are some really interesting things you can do if this is possible. Creating a hotkey to take a screenshot of just the visible text in the editor, or possibly doing something where you can say take a screenshot of line 1 to 50.
Just curious if anything like this is possible.

Research direction
The issue names no file, test, or entry point; begin by identifying where $psEditor exposes editor services and how the host could provide visible screen coordinates. The requested editor support, coordinate semantics, and screenshot behavior are not defined, so those acceptance details need clarification before implementation.
