xfce4-screenshoter also support selecting screen region. But I doubt it
support such detailed API as ksnapshot. It does support some command
line options:
$ xfce4-screenshooter -h

-h, --help Show help options
--help-all Show all help options
--help-gtk Show GTK+ Options

-c, --clipboard Copy the screenshot to the clipboard
-d, --delay Delay in seconds before taking the screenshot
-f, --fullscreen Take a screenshot of the entire screen
-m, --mouse Display the mouse on the screenshot
-o, --open Application to open the screenshot
-r, --region Select a region to be captured by clicking a
point of the screen without releasing the mouse button, dragging your
mouse to the other corner of the region, and releasing the mouse button.
-s, --save Directory where the screenshot will be saved
-u, --upload Host the screenshot on ZimageZ, a free online
