Bug description:
Impact
======
It is very difficult to use the address bar in Epiphany on GNOME on Wayland
because after a few characters, the address bar field stops redrawing. (This
apparently was triggered by mutter 3.26?)
Test Case
=========
sudo apt install epiphany-browser
Open the Web app
Type a URL into the address bar. Type a loooong URL.
You should see all the characters you type into the address bar.
Regression Potential
===================
This is a minimal patch cherry-picked from GTK 3.22 git master (will be part
of future GTK+ 3.22.25). I also pushed this patch to Debian unstable.
Original Bug Report
===================
First two characters typed in urlbar show immediately, other characters take
up to 30 seconds to appear, or url will appear in full once enter key is
pressed.
