Web features explorer - Region capture

Web features explorer

When using navigator.mediaDevices.getDisplayMedia() to capture a browser tab as a video stream, the region capture API allows you to crop the video to the bounding box of a given element. In contrast to the element capture API, any content that overlays that element is also captured.
