Bug Description
In just about any dialog box, you can press Enter to click the "main" button, or use Tab to set focus on a button, then press it using the space bar. In gnome-screenshot, the "Take Screenshot" button is highlighted as the "main"one - but you cannot click it using either Enter or space bar. This makes it difficult to take a screenshot without using the mouse (e.g., because something depends on the mouse location).
Apparently, there's an Alt-S shortcut for it - but it's not exactly intuitive.
