I don't really understand how you intend to use a delay with the region

My understanding (and use) is that I need to see the region I want to
capture
to select it, so "select and change desktop" does not make sense.
That would be something like the delay with "Section of a window": during the
initial delay you can move around freely (including changing desktop), then
after the delay expires the mouse cursor changes and you can select the
region of interest.
Whether it is possible or not and how easy/difficult it is to implement, we
will have to see :-)
Thierry,
The situation with my installation of openSUSE Leap 15.4 is that whenever
the mouse is in capture mode, the keyboard I/O is frozen so that I cannot
switch desktop or change windows. By allowing a delay in region capture
mode I would be able to switch desktops before the mouse enters capture
mode. I have submitted the issue about the keyboard freezing to the
openSUSE forums and I have to hear back yet. I am not sure whether this
issue persists also in Leap 15.5. I wonder whether other distributions
experience this, too.
Best,
Gianluca
