I just had the misfortune to press Shift-{print screen} accidentally
while in a Gnome desktop, and the result was a completely unresponsive
system where the only recovery was a power switch initiated shutdown.
Further investigation shows the runaway creation of gnome-screenshot
processes.

System is CentOS 5.2 fully updated on an Intel i686.

Suggestions about what component should receive the bugzilla report
are welcome.

Are you able to recreate it? It happened to me once, I've never seen the
issue again after that.

I've opened bugzilla report #0002971 against metacity, since that appears
to be what interprets the {print screen} key.
