I am a bit surprised to hear that this bug cannot be fixed. For a usability
point of view this is a security issue, which I believe should be a high
priority. Has this issue been discussed somewhere and declared to be unfixable
at all? I could not find any related discussion with an ultimatum. Moreover, I
switched to KDE recently from GNOME (on X) and never encountered this bug.

Anyway, I just tried taking screenshot using the print screen button with an
open context menu and it works fine. Also I am able to lock screen (Ctl+Alt+L)
with an open context menu.

Can you please elaborate or point me somewhere so that I can understand why
this bug cannot be fixed?
