Bug Description

When I take screenshots of a window (Alt+PrintScreen), the resulting image is flipped horizontally and the area being captured, on-screen, is offset some length from the window being captured.

Attached are both a full-screen screenshot of the entire desktop and the resulting "window screenshot" taken of the nautilus window. Please note that the window screenshot has the exact dimensions of the window (I checked this), and also that the top corners are rounded, just like the nautilus window that was captured.

I am using GNOME Shell rather than Unity.
