Bug Description
Tried this with (updated) Zesty plus ppa:attente/
then export GDK_BACKEND=mir
launch from command line: gnome-screenshot -- --desktop_
Attempt to take a screen shot in any form and it will crash (see attached log)
according to attente:
gnome-screenshot crashes is because it delegates the screenshotting to org.gnome.Shell, and falls back to using x11 if that fails
so i think the solution is to have u8 implement that interface...

If we really want to support gnome-screenshot at all, it might be easier to implement a Mir backend right inside it (perhaps after fixing bug 1660269).
