'Morning, Rosemary. XSane is the front-end for the SANE (Scanners Are Now Easy) drivers, and the other one interfaces with Gimp. I can open Gimp2, File > Acquire > and I'm given the choice of screenshot or any devices it thinks could feed it. Interestingly my video-capture card is one interface, but I haven't tried that yet - maybe it would do a screenshot type of thing from my camcorder. So yes, from Gimp2 I can scan in anything that I know is going to need some attention. That's really useful as I don't have to save it before editing.
