Comment(by humdinger):

 Replying to [comment:15 stippi]:
 > IMHO an extra button isn't such a bad idea. Just because "Copy to
 clipboard" seems to fit somehow in the "Save in" popup doesn't
 automatically make it a good choice. It borders on hiding features and
 putting them somewhere the user may not expect them, just for sake of a
 more compact GUI. Some people may not even associate "Save" with clipboard
 at all, but have a very strong mental connection to storing something on
 disk. And indeed the clipboard is not such a persistent storage.

 I can see what you mean. OTOH, if it's decided to have a "quickshot"
 feature, that is doing a screenshot without opening the Screenshot panel
 (like the PRINT key does now), we could re-use the settings of the
 Screenshot app. Setting "Clipboard" there could then be used for the
 "quickshot".
