Cancelling "select area" screenshot in window that captures input breaks clicking ability

[rjr162]

I've ran into an issue with gnome-screenshot a few times now where the window I want to take a capture of also captures mouse/keyboard inputs.

In my examples, it was VMRC (remote console for vCenter). If I have a VMRC window open, click the gnome-screenshot icon from the favorites app, select "capture area" and then put the + icon in the VMRC area and hit the ESC button to cancel, my cursor looks fine when it's inside an application window but if I hover over the menu bar of a window the cursor switches back to the + icon and I can't click anything. Also, you cannot click anything in the Favorites bar in the desktop nor can you click the drop down arrow to log out etc. You're basically forced to use keyboard shortcuts and commands to do any desktop / desktop window functionality until you log out.
