SUMMARY
This version of spectacle, as seen on Fedora 40 does not seem to appropriately
take any rectangular-selection screenshots. It takes images which are
saved/copied to clipboard but with no pixel information; so they are empty and
do not contain viewable content as expected.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Use Wayland (on external monitor)
2. Hit the print screen button
3. Click Rectangular selection and go through the standard process of selection
4. Hit enter
OBSERVED RESULT
Any image saved as a rectangular selection will fail to contain the pixel
information needed. It is of the expected selected size, but otherwise.
EXPECTED RESULT
The images saved will be usable, with the content selected pre-screenshot,
visible.
