SUMMARY
The icon for Spectacle appears when taking a screenshot similar to if the application was being opened. This also displays over rectangle region screenshots even if the mouse is set to hidden, so it can get in the way of screenshots.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Take a silent screenshot with Spectacle on a Wayland session using a keyboard shortcut 
2. Application icon will appear beside mouse cursor
3. Take a rectangle region screenshot
4. Icon will appear in rectangle screenshot, both in the preview and the actual screenshot

OBSERVED RESULT
Application icon displays when taking a silent screenshot


EXPECTED RESULT
Application icon should not display when taking a silent screenshot
