The last sentence of the comment to which you replied covers this. What Valve does here is not the same thing, since it doesn't involve the game developer or publisher, and doesn't work for non-Steam games, and happens as an extra step. But it does come close to achieving the same effect (when it works), and it is pretty cool.
