Summary: pix_snap: what does "work best" mean

Initial Comment:
The help patch for pix_snap says: "pix_snap works best with single buffered windows". What does it mean? What are exactly its limitations or known issues with double buffered windows?

Message:
thanks for your bug-report.
it seems that you have already found out what "best" means: in single
buffered mode, the buffer you are snapping usually has already some
content, whereas in double-buffered mode it is mostly empty (unless you
just draw something to it).

therefore i tag this issue as "duplicate", as it is basically the same as
#3292406 (though from a different pov)
