Public bug reported:

0) have a gimp running
1) run gnome-screenshot
2) take screen shot
3) click copy to clipboard
4) alt-tab to gimp
5) edit
6) paste as new image

The new image has 127 rows of the screenshot data followed by the
correct number of other rows EXCEPT the other rows are of a single
greyish colour (0x979899).

(Saving the screenshot to file, and opening file in gimp works fine as a
workaround for opening screen data in gimp)

What should happen

When you 'copy to clipboard' it should copy the whole image to clipboard.
and 'paste' should retrieve the image data from clipboard into the gimp canvas.

(Whether this is a gimp issue retrieving from clipboard or gnome-
screenshot giving the data to clipboard I am not sure, but somewhere the
clipboard data is not being passed properly)
