            Bug ID: 237208
           Summary: Web Inspector: `console.screenshot` like API that
                    returns image object
           Product: WebKit
           Version: Safari 15
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Web Inspector
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: catlan at letteropener.com

We would be interested in a API like `console.screenshot` that would return an image object instead of displaying the image inaccessible on the console.

Our Safari Web Extension allows users to send HTML or CSS to Kaleidoscope, for a visual text comparison. With the current API we are able to send the HTML or computed CSS of an element via context menu action to Kaleidoscope. We also provide a javascript function, so developers can send any textual content to the app over the Web Inspector Console Command Line: 

> ksdiff($0.innerHTML)

It would be great if we could also provide image comparison in a similar manner like:

> ksdiff(inspector.screenshot($0))
