--- Comment #9 from Ellie <e...@horse64.org> ---
This seems to be related to touch gestures, for sure drag and drop getting
confused and maybe also this weird three finger window overview gesture getting
confused and stuck.

Here is one way I found that pretty reliably gets you into a broken state where
touch is dead if you repeat it a few times:

1. Put your finger down on the icon only task switcher in the plasma bottom bar
on some app icon, and do a long press. The menu will pop up but at the same
time or just moments later or earlier, a small copy of the icon will show up
next to your finger indicating you began drag and drop.

2. Move your finger wildly across the screen without lifting it (improtant!),
with drag and drop ongoing.

3. Now still without lifting your finger, move it fast toward one of the screen
edges to the side or the top, and move it out of the screen area. This may
require a touch screen with a bezel.

Repeat this a few times and suddenly touch will go dead, neither the bottom bar
nor any app windows open at this time will still react.

I also found a way to fix it again if you have a hardware keyboard attached:
press Super+L to lock the screen. Now touch should work again, but you need to
enter your password to unlock it again, of course.
