(Get the code!)
I've just discovered this bug when I was (desperately) trying to document an issue in gedit which showed here a certain drop-down menu as blank, no menu items.
scrot ALWAYS goes on strike when you have hotkey set to PrtSc (for example) and you want to document a bug in a window. So in that source window, you would show the dropped-down menu, and THEN hit the hotkey for scrot.
Result: Nothing.
You can almost bet your life on it that once you retract the drop-down menu (i. e. so that it doesn't show), scrot via hotkey will work fine again.
Proved easily by polling my $HOME for new files. Whenever I hardcopied a window w/its menu dropped down = no new files.
