Given our ctrl/alt/shift distinction, it seems to me that these should be
<shift>F11 and
<shift>F12
This is philosophically consistent with the idea that <shift> makes small
letters into BIG LETTERS, and similarly makes small volume changes into
maximum volume changes.  Alternatively they could be <alt>F11 and
<alt>F12.  But in any event, if we're going to avoid <ctrl> shortcuts in
the shell, then these should change too.

I think <alt>0x93 would actually be better (this is what I meant to
suggest).  In other words, I think "<alt>frame" is better than
"<alt>search" for taking a screenshot.  This is because the visual of the
frame suggests that it includes the contents of the screen, and is a sort
of "picture frame", so there is a nice abstract connection.
