Screenshots are not quite the same, however, because they are limited by the screen size and resolution, whereas an image-capture tool in the PDF viewer can use a higher resolution.

Another annoying thing is that you still can't paste an image copied from acroread into Gimp. (In Unix that is, it allegedly works in Windows.) It works with Xpaint though.
Silly enough I noticed that if you copy graphics from Acrobat Reader the bitmap will only be in the resolution you are viewing it. You can print the selection to a Postscript file though and thus get the full resolution. But it doesn't seem to work all the time...extracting bitmap images from selections?
