Description Bastien Nocera 2011-11-08 14:40:28 UTC 
For certain media keys, allowing us to change the volume, or brightness even when in overview mode. See:

Please enable that for screenshots too.

People have been confused by this for years, i.e., not being able to screenshot open menus.

Grab override isn't coming and in the meanwhile, we have gnome-shell doing the key capture for us now, solving the original problem.
