Thanks for reporting this issue.

It appears that plugin (Screenshot) has not been completely translated yet.

To fix it for now:
You can set where it saves the screenshot in the CompizConfig Settings Manager.
Make sure you have the "compizconfig-settings-manager" package installed.
System -> Preferences -> Advanced Desktop Effects Settings (Whatever that translates into Dutch)
Find "Screenshot"
Change the "Directory" setting to Bureaublad

Same bug for all languages different from english IMO
My Ubuntu is installed in french and the same bug appear : ~/Desktop while it should be ~/Bureau
...maybe should we help the dev team to translate ...
is it internal or by rosetta?

summary: - Screenshot plugin save to location not translated
+ Screenshot plugin save to does not use correct ~/Desktop equivalent by
+ default
