Yes, but for some reason this does not always work for
Shift+F5 when used in gnome-terminal or xterm.
AltGr+Shift+F5 has the expected behavior though.

Comparing the configurations on which Shift+F5 has the
expected behavior and those on which Shift+F5 does nothing
but a very low noise (similar to a screen capture), I suspect
this has something to do with the Nvidia screen driver.
