This is exploiting an edge case behaviour of a security feature. At a programming level, this is bad code, and will break at some point, possibly in an ugly way. I also don't like the idea of apps being sneaky and hiding behaviour from users.
I use Voyager, and there's a button "share as screenshot / image", which allows you to include a watermark, and shows you exactly what the end result will look like. Just do something like that instead?
