Comment(by eben):

 A notification could work.  It seems like the appropriate notifier would
 be the Journal, as it receives the screenshot, so we'd have to begin
 building an API for activity notifications (which we should do anyway).

 The other vision I've had for the screenshot, which might be better, or
 perhaps just an intermediate step, is to reveal the screenshot in a modal
 dialog.  This would result in a nice preview, could have options for
 (Discard) (Copy to clipboard) and (Keep in Journal), and might even give a
 way to name/tag the screenshot, and in the future even scale or crop it.

 This gives much more direct feedback, as well as valuable ways to make use
 of the screenshot just taken.  Then, upon selecting "copy to clipboard" or
 "keep in Journal" the dialog would go away and the appropriate
 notification would be shown.
