Rationale
For testing and debugging i'd like to record my user actions, to later replay them, like a macro.
Not in a "presses a certain button" way like in for example Dogtail or Selenium, but in a "click on a certain location in the window"-way as with VNC(robot). Also include mousemoves.
Especially for drawing apps this would really come in handy.
Say for example i create an SVG web app. I want to test it in many browsers, i code some changes, test in all of those browsers again, etc.

I don't understand what the problem is. Would you please edit the rationale to make it more simply understood? Please include possible work flows for various types of users.
I also don't understand the applicability of the solution, as the problem is not clear enough.
I would also suggest looking into Dogtail project: https://fedorahosted.org/dogtail/ for the application that is used in Ubuntu QA for GUI testing.
