Hello,

I have two Monitors and I want when I press screenshot to give me a picker to select
Option 1: Screenshot for All Monitors
Option 2: Screenshot for either Monitors 1, Monitors 2

Thanks

This is a great suggestion. This should obviously handle N monitors, not just two. I would like the functionality to also include an easy way to pick a collection of windows in a screenshot.

I think this is already a tool in windows. Try Shift + Win + S then up the top select the third icon. Whichever screen your mouse is over lights up for a screenshot. See if that's the kind of thing you are after.

@amorenew Shift + Win + S can do one monitor, Print Screen does all. But yeah, would be nice if Shift + Win + S could do all as well

One work-around can be to manually resize a window and then do a "window" screenshot?

As discussed in #121. 

Adds a new `IListItem.TextToSuggest` property. If an extension populates that, and the user hits right-arrow when the item is selected, we'll set the `SearchText` to that text. 

I didn't give it a UI treatment, because 
1. I'm not good at XAML
2. As noted in zadjii-msft#121 (comment), there's complicated edge cases here. You have to track what's actually been typed, and then also have a ghost suggestion for the very first item (before the user types/up/downs at all). 

I didn't think it was valuable to implement that right now before we have A Real App. 

* targets #144 
  * which targets #142 
    * which targets #141 

and those guys are all merged as of #150
