Description
I'd like to see Auto-it handle 'picture driven computing'. The basic premise is that you take a cropped screenshot of the area you want to click or drag etc and auto-it would search the screen for that image and perform whatever action you tell it to.
Take a look at "Project Sikuli" http://www.sikuli.org/ They have it working but are lacking the million existing features that Auto-it already has.

Replying to Valik:
So you want a different language.
No, not at all. This actually mostly already exists in Autoit with the image search functionality. But I'd like to see some combined functions that would take a screenshot, then do a pixel search based on a predefined image and return the coordinates of that image.
Think about the tabs in a web browser. With this functionality instead of having a hard coded x,y coordinates of a particular tab to click on, the tab could be in any particular order and it would essentially find what you're looking for.
So you want a different language.
