Title:
  Screenshots randomly empty

Status in gnome-screenshot package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I'm almost sure this is a regression, as I often take a lot of
  screenshots and I had never seen this until very recently (a few
  days).

  At random times, all the screenshots I take using the PrintScreen key
  start being empty, meaning they only produce an "empty" image of the
  size of the screen all of a uniform color (f2f1f0). Starting from
  that, every single screenshot is "empty", until some random action I
  take, such as switching windows, fixes the issue.

  This last time what fixed the issue was:
  - I ran the "Screenshot" application manually from the dash (instead of hitting the PrintScreen key as I normally do), and it worked fine
  - then I tried again with the PrintScreen key and now it worked.
