Is there some magic syntax option which will allow me to use the "export
snapshot" command to export the full area within the boundingRect of a
group object, even if the boundingRect may exceed the object's current rect?
I know I can make an offscreen copy, adjust the rect to match the

To be fair about this, there's really no reason to start off by placing this
all in one line just because you can:
int myVar;
++someOtherVar; // or someOtherVar = someOtherVar + 1;
myVar = someOtherVar;
does the same thing and is (somewhat) easier for newbie

Great. It's short. However since you have three things going on in the
