I'm only a user and from a user point of view I must say: "If it's not broken 
don't try to fix it".  I believe I speak for many users who are used to do 
Alt+PrtScn to capture for ever.  Even if this is right, don't try to re-educate 
the entire pc user population as this will result in general frustration and 
disappointment.
 
For the issue itself, I've used xev and found that on my pc the PrtScn button 
produces an Insert button press event.  I changed the keybinding event from 
"<Alt>Print" into "<Alt>Insert" and now I can do screen-shots using the 
Alt+PrtScn buton combination again, but I would like to see that everything is 
back as it used to be.
