It's funny you should mention this, I used Command+Shift+4 today with VO and 
succeeded in what I wanted.

Let me set the scene, as this may not work in all situations. I needed to find 
the publication info for a book and the title page would not read in Adobe 
Digital Editions. I began by maximising the window as hiding the other apps did 
not give me what I wanted after running the Screenshot through my OCR package. 
After pressing Command+Shift+4 I pressed Space and then I clicked the mouse. A 
picture was taken and as luck would have it I got the info I needed. As i said 
though, this was a specific case where I supposed there was not much chance of  
it not working.

Take care
