That's a statement about getting Gnome 3 to display in the non-fallback 
mode.  It's not a statement about what your VNC server needs to 
implement to scrape pixels out of the display.  In fact most of the VNC 
servers just use XGetImage() for that, which is the same thing 
screenshot software uses.  So to the extent that screenshots work under 
gnome-shell, VNC servers should too.

I assume you state this with an implicit "I'd like this to still work in 
the future" as the subtext?  Otherwise I'm not sure why you'd mention it.
