No, but it is often useful to log the output of a particular window.
We program here in Nortel Networks very large executables (50 Mb or more) that are imbedded in 
electronic cards for wireless networks. So there is no GUI, only textual output.
Those executables are the product of several teams, and they produce large amounts of data traces onscreen
that need to be logged when we run them for later examination. We sometimes run those executables overnight
and we can then examine the result on the next day. The output log usually is several tens of Mb.
This way of working is quite common in the industry. So a logging facility is necessary.
Every major terminal has one so it's a pity Konsole doesn't, although
on every other aspect, it betters the other terminals IMHO. 
So I'd rather not have to resort to xterm or dtterm for this.
