Hi, just wanted to add a comment to this:

I simply want to have a workflow where I hit PrnScr, and the fill screen capture opens in GIMP as a temporary file. The temporary file part is important for me, since after editing, I'd like to just press CTRL+S in Gimp and be asked about a filename (as opposed to pressing Shift+Ctrl+S, and then choosing a name)

I guess in the mean time, it wouldn't be too bad fixing the name for the screenshot image to say tmp.png (without %NNN) and then remembering to press Shift+Ctrl+S for those edits I'd like to save (as Ctrl+S would just overwrite the "tmp.png" file... Still, i'd rather like a "real" temp file in GIMP (though I don't know if that is possible) ...

Cheers !
