Just use ctrl+PrtSc to send to clipboard

Just recently upgraded to bionic, and after using it for a while I
mostly got used to it, but the one feature that keeps bothering me
painfully is the lack of the printscreen dialog. I understand the
initiative to adopt gnome standards, but this is introducing a big
inconvenience in comparison to how it was functional in the Unity
desktop. It is not just about being able to save printscreens to an
arbitrary location under an arbitrary name. It is even more importantly
being able to copy a printscreen into a clipboard without saving it to a
file on a disk. I used to be able to just copy a printscreen and Ctrl+V
it into a IM window, a email client or any webapp. Now I have to take
additional steps to open file manager, navigate to the Pictures folder,
locate the one printscreen file I need among other ones, and drag&drop
it to where I need it, then, delete it. The functionality and user
experience has decreased significantly for me, and on top of that I get
constantly annoyed by it. I wish Canonical shipped the previous user
experience with the new gnome-desktop based Ubuntu. Even as an opt-in!

Bug description:
  When taking a screenshot with Print Screen or Alt+Print Screen a
  dialog box asking you what and where to save the file no longer
  appears. So while you hear a camera sound you have no other
  confirmation that a screenshot was really taken. Additionally, there
  is no way of knowing where the screenshot went. I'd imagine this will
  be particularly problematic for new users of Ubuntu.
