Dear Maintainer,

When mate-screenshot is used with the option Select area to grab (when
using Shift+Print Screen), the screenshot includes the overlay drawn when
selecting the area. This is perfectly visible when using marco window with
picom (any variety: GLX, Hybrid, Xrender), where the selection overlay in
current version of mate-tweak (Installed: 22.04.4-1) is greenish. I'm
opening the bug on mate-utils because I think mate-screenshot should handle
this situation better. I don't think mate-tweak should do anything
different - the overlay looks nice as it currently is.
