We may also consider using an arrow to point to things.
Perhaps this is something that could be built into Quickshot; have
quickshot save one image plain, and then prompt the user for any
highlights that can also be saved.

Yes, this is what I had in mind too (see my previous email). This may be
a good example, although there are too many arrows in my opinion:

I added an item to our agenda: need for one or more screenshots editors.
He/she/they can see to it that screenshots are consistent, good looking
and meeting all requirements.

If we are to do this, a circle would suffice. Dimming the
background would confuse readers and make them think they're being
patronised. I'm all for the idea, because especially in
whole-window screenshots it can be just as hard to find what you
are looking for as on your own screen. A circle points users to
exactly the right place. May I suggest ubuntu orange for the circle?
Just my opinion,

*Subject:* [Ubuntu-manual] Screenshot highlighting
I think it may be useful to highlight portions of screenshots.
We could put an orange oval around text or a button, or maybe
blur or grey all but one section of the screenshot to draw the
readers attention to it. The only problem would be doing it so
that it looks good and is consistent.
Thoughts?
