yes - that is a chrome tooltip window and chrome internally deadlocks. that
window is an override-redirect window (bypasses wm management) and thus the wm
isn't involved in that tooltip window at all beyond compositing it (displaying
the pixels), which e does properly. rendering is up to chrome and chrome simply
internally deadlocks itself. wm isn't invovled. i can only assume chromes new
"aurora" back-end that replaced gtk is maybe detecting wm and doing something
different here and using an untested codepath and locking itself. there is
nothing we can do as the wm isn't being involved in this deadlock - chromium
isn't asking something of the wm then stopping and waiting for a reply (that we
don't give). it's doing this inside of itself. you really need to file bug
reports with the chrome devs here.
