(Whiteboard: [systemsfe][p=3]) 

Currently, we end up taking new screenshots for the cards view if the application object doesn't have an existing screenshot. However, the way the Stack Manager works, it provides a guaranteed screenshot for a running application. We should use *that* screenshot!

Is this still an issue with all the recent cards view work?

Aus is up to his eyeballs in this so I'll let him respond. I still see more calls to getScreenshot than I would expect, but I think we have fixed the issue this bug was opened for?

Yes, I believe this is implemented as we want it now. 

We still need to use getScreenshot to get a screenshot of the app chrome for system browser windows with web content (!app).

For normal apps, we don't call getScreenshot, only requestScreenshotURL which returns a URL based on the existing cached blob.

Ok, sounds like our work here is done then. Let's reopen if I'm wrong. Thanks!
