I had a similar idea to have a setting that controls what happens on shortcut press and when gui is running because currently the ui does not work for this. What we have is
So I have to check this box and it is under the "When spectacle is running" section. But the image will be autosaved regardless whether the other checkbox is saved or not. I think the problem is no easy but I will try again to think of something.

Yeah, noticed that one .. When the first checkbox is checked, it will always save to clipboard (either using GUI or DBUS/Hotkey).
Maybe add settings like "save to clipboard" etc. in the "Shortcuts". OR add another checkbox "use same settings for hotkey launches"?
To not miss this new bug that would be introduced with this patch: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=420477#c13

@davidre One other thing I noticed: launch Spectacle with any shortcut (except 'Print' key standalone), for example Shift+Print. Spectacle saves the picture instantaneously but no window of Spectacle opens up, only a notification shows up. Is this also "works as designed" or do/should we change some behavior regarding this one?
