Unfortunately I cannot find an easy way of printing a screenshot while
maintaining the mouse pointer on the screen and/or the highlighted
region. When I try using the PrtScr key, the cursor changes and the
previously highlighted button loses the focus.

Actually, it's quite simple to reproduce it: while in full screen mode,
mouse the mouse to the upper right corner (the very last pixel). Try
clicking, and you'll notice the button won't be activated. Then move one
pixel left and one pixel down, and the button will be highlighted,
indicating it can be activated. The "Close button" here is not the best
example, but the previous/next page buttons are more frequently used and
would benefit from this as well.

What seems to be a design feature to prevent "accidental" clicks, is
actually a design flaw, since it slows down users, according to Fitts'
law. It's very subtle and most developers believe "this is just not
important", but considering it's relatively easy to change it's a detail
that adds up to the quality of the interface.
