Bug Description

Hi, I have found a behavior that I'm able to reproduce consistently (I have not tried with other browsers).

Here are the steps to reproduce (should work on a clean Ubuntu 22.04 installation):

1. Install Chromium (apt install chromium-browser)
2. Open chromium
3. Open a website
4. Right click on an empty section of the website, so the secondary menu will open (the one that contains the "Back", "Reload", "Save as..." options)
5. Press the PrntScrn key, making the new screenshot UI to appear

The screenshot UI freezes and cannot be closed neither by pressing Esc nor any other key combination.

Confirmed in a Xorg session. The screenshot GUI loses focus and can't regain it.
