Public bug reported:
I've ran into an issue with gnome-screenshot a few times now where the
window I want to take a capture of also captures mouse/keyboard inputs.
In my examples, it was VMRC (remote console for vCenter). If I have a
VMRC window open, click the gnome-screenshot icon from the favorites
app, select "capture area" and then put the + icon in the VMRC area and
hit the ESC button to cancel, my cursor looks fine when it's inside an
application window but if I hover over the menu bar of a window the
cursor switches back to the + icon and I can't click anything. Also, you
cannot click anything in the Favorites bar in the desktop nor can you
click the drop down arrow to log out etc. You're basically forced to use
keyboard shortcuts and commands to do any desktop / desktop window
functionality until you log out.
