This is mostly a usability issue. A notebook ended up sitting on the
print screen key for a few seconds. That caused the gnome-screenshot
program to constantly start opening windows until everything became
unusable. It took me about 20 minutes to slowly get to a terminal screen
(alt-f2) and then I typed killall -9 gnome-screenshot. After many many
more minutes, it finally stopped grinding (CPU load average hit 72).
Please edit this behavior so it takes a screenshot only once per press
and not continuous.
