I actually had to install systemd-coredump before I could use this...
Afterwards I followed the guide on retrieving a backtrace and ran `coredumpctl
--reverse`, only to be stymied by the return `No coredumps found`. Not sure
what to do next as I've actually not been able to get Spectacle to crash again
lately after I ended up deleting it to try to replace it with gnome screenshot,
which didn't even work, so I removed that and put Spectacle back so I would at
least have /some/ functionality, plus I dove into its keyboard shortcuts and
was surprised that afterwards using prtscn and alt+prtscn no longer actually
opens the Spectacle app and sends the screenshots directly to the clipboard
(which was all I wanted in the first place), and... 

Anyway, point is, I don't know if it was the delete/reinstall or the changing
of the keyboard shortcuts, but I've not actually been able to get spectacle to
crash again since. Now I'm half wondering if I should delete and reinstall the
Discover Software Center to get it to cut its crap too...
