A Screenshot, Which Depicts The Problem
# DESCRIPTION
Attempting to capture the desktop can (inconsistently) return an error modal.
# STEPS TO REPRODUCE
Attempt to capture a screenshot, of the desktop, with Spectacle, in Active
Window mode.
# EXPECTED RESULT
A screenshot should have been produced.
# OBSERVED RESULT
A screenshot was not produced. In its stead, the attached screenshot was, which
states the undermentioned (which was retroactively extracted from the
screenshot, so may not be 100 % accurate, despite my best effort to ensure that
it is): [^1]
> An error occurred while taking a screenshot.
> KWin screenshot request failed:
> No active window
> Potentially relevant information:

> - Method specific arguments: QMap(("include-cursor", QVariant(bool,
> true))("include-decoration", QVariant(bool, true))("include-shadow",
