When a screenshot is captured using shortcut without launching Spectacle if fails to include mouse pointer even if the option is previously selected in Spectacle interface (I don't know if that option is global that also applies to shortcut mode or only usable when Spectacle is shown and user clicks on "Take a New Screenshot" button). Using shortcuts, both Full Screen and Active Window capture modes fail to include mouse pointer, but Rectangular region succeed to include it.

The goal of bug 392057 is the opposite of this bug.
It's the same. That bug report proposes making it read spectacle's config file to respect your preference. Right now whether to include the pointer or not is a random hardcoded thing.

All screenshots modes that are captured using shortcuts should follow pointer settings that appears in main Spectacle, and from what I see that pointer option is also global for all non shortcut capture modes.
