When you take a screenshot, input snaps.

This is also true for Win+Shift+S

I think we need to snap only on CharacterHandler, or something? When a key actually generates a character.

But what about arrow keys? Home/end/pgup/pgdn? Those seem like snapping keys as well...

I could do characters + [the above keys]. There might even be something convenient about ENHANCED_KEY that I could use...
