Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

I often record the Steam UI for my bug reports. It would be nice if the hotkey for "Record on demand" option allowed you to record the Steam UI when in gamemode. This would make Decky recorder obsolete for me. This request applies to recording the Steam UI while a game is running and bringing up the overlay as well as when no game is running and I'm recording the Steam UI by itself.

Decky recorder no longer functions on the deck. The need for this ability is at an all time high.
