I was hoping that gnome-panel-screenshot --delay=10 (or whatever: 
the number is in seconds) would be your answer. But I have just 
tried it. The delay works fine, but the menus don't appear
properly.

There is a bug open about delay options at
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=79189

You should probably make a separate bug about trying to get
menus into the mix, and leave a note in #79189 about it (and
vice versa).

In the interim, yes, xwd and/or some gimp skills sounds like 
what you need.
