Description

I believe it would be handy to both being able to screenshot a page and scrape some other data (e.g. title etc.) at the same time.

Right now it is possible only by executing two commands - one to take a screenshot, second to scrape element content via HTML or JS.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the existing screenshot and element scraping commands in the codebase to understand how they handle arguments and execution, then propose a new option that performs both actions in a single run.
