If I do this, the screen blinks momentarily, but there is nothing to let
me choose where to save it or what to call it. I don't even know where
it has put it.

It turns out that it *has* used the same Screenshot app as the one in
Menu > Accessories, because the Screenshot icon (which I put on the
toolbar so I could find it quickly) has lit up red, and I can bring up
the screenshot "Save" panel. Odd that it doesn't bring it to the
foreground by itself. But impressively, it has correctly screenshot
*both* my monitors (one landscape and one portrait) – not that I would
ever need that, but good to know. 99% of the time I want to pick the
area to screenshot, not the whole screen or even window.
