There's nothing particularly special about recording strictly 1280x720 :)

You can use xvidcap and set whatever width and height you need.
You can use RecordItNow and do the same, but rely on ffmpeg.
You can use recordscreen which is a CLI wrapper for ffmpeg (which is
what I mostly use).

The only real benefit of Xephyr I can think of is that sometimes apps
try to open new dialogs in odd places on display, outside of recorded
area (but then, again, e.g. GNOME 3 fixes that for modal dialogs in
GTK+ apps). But then again, if it works, why not use it. I was asking
merely out of curiousity :)
