This list is in general about discussing code, patches, etc. -- not the
right place to request features.

Though, given you mentioned ksnapshot, I guess you're on KDE: there
after you make the screenshot, you can just use the Copy button, then
Paste in Impress to avoid having to save the file on the disk. I believe
this is easy enough, and filling the clipboard with a screenshot is
really a task for the system, not LO itself.

Best,

Miklos
