After the fix, Spectactle does indeed close immediately (and is available to be restarted) after completing a screenshot-from-shortcut by pressing ENTER (or ESC).

If, on the other hand, I have checked the option "Quit after a manual save or copy", and I dismiss the screenshotting UI by pressing the "Copy" or "Save" buttons (or the appropriate keyboard shortcuts), Spectactle does not quit immediately and keeps running for ~20 seconds - which in turn prevents invoking it again with the shortcut (as reported in bug 465532).

That's also fixed for the 23.04 release.
