I now remember sending in a bug report to that effect during the 3.0 Beta-test program, but forgot about it in my previous posting. But actually, back then Grab would work from the Services menu, BUT you had to launch it manually before it would register. But now under the final release of 3.0 it seems that Grab won't register itself no matter what! What an improvement. Sorry for my misinformative posting! -Avery Wang
