I think a screen capture tool like Spectacle should also include the option to capture movie sequences, like a camera app can capture video sequences besides still images.

Reproducible: Always

While it may appear to be similar in use, screencasting needs completely different codepaths to capture screen images in realtime and encode it (in realtime) into a movie. This merits the creation of a new app in itself.
