Indeed! Thank you for pointing that out. I also found
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-screenshot/-/issues/82 and linked
issues and merge requests, for additional context.

So the option to include/remove-border is removed from the upstream GUI
and so are the border effects. The CLI isn't updated yet though. Window
screenshots now always include a faint shadow on all four sides of the
window, and that's why there's transparent padding added all around.
That's the new expected behavior.

Would it make sense, and would it be possible, for the recently released
3.37.1 version of gnome-screenshot to be SRU'd into Ubuntu 19.10 and
20.04 then? With the current 3.36.0 version, it looks like border
inclusion/removal and the border shadow/none effect are broken, or at
least really don't work as the GUI states.
