GridFlow has had this feature since 2002 or 2003...
I used it for making self-screenshot art this year :

(and more... go see the full series of 42 similarly-named images in the
same folder)
The use of [gf/canvas_xid] is only if you need to want to make screenshots
of your own patch. It's also used for making screenshots of all help
patches automatically :
http://gridflow.ca/help/
But if you want to make fullscreen shots, or screenshots of the topleft
corner of the screen, you don't need that, just :
[#in x11 here root]
This requires x11, which is available on OSX as «Apple X11», but I don't
recall trying the screenshot feature on OSX.
The screenshot feature is not part of the [#in quartz] module.
