Public bug reported:

I'm almost sure this is a regression, as I often take a lot of
screenshots and I had never seen this until very recently (a few days).

At random times, all the screenshots I take using the PrintScreen key
start being empty, meaning they only produce an "empty" image of the
size of the screen all of a uniform color (f2f1f0). Starting from that,
every single screenshot is "empty", until some random action I take,
such as switching windows, fixes the issue.

This last time what fixed the issue was:
- I ran the "Screenshot" application manually from the dash (instead of hitting 
the PrintScreen key as I normally do), and it worked fine
- then I tried again with the PrintScreen key and now it worked.
