Screenshot of application windows that are bigger than the screen?

Any suggestions for a way or an application to take screenshots of application windows that are bigger than the screen, that is would require vertical and/or horizontal scrolling?

Command-option-anything shortcut don't seem to have that functionality.
Snapz Pro doesn't seem to have that functionality either.
Saving as a PDF isn't an option either as that would not work in all applications, and it would have all the application menus, controls etc missing from the screenshot.
And it would not be limited to browser windows only. Any application windows that don't have space to show the whole screen so that they need scrolling to be able to seen.. there has to be a way to capture those screens in full.

I remember some early "virtual desktop/monitor" utilities for classic Mac OS allowed you to set a much higher resolution than your monitor's, and you'd basically scroll around the desktop to get to each edge and corner. That way, you could have a huuuuuuuuuuuuge desktop and make the windows much bigger. This would probably work some way, but I don't know whether a current utility does that for Mac OS X.

This will take screenshots of an entire webpage:

I have not heard of an app that will do the same for other applications, however.
