Public bug reported:
I was aiming to do some work to bring this critical extension back into a
functioning state against 3.8...
https://github.com/csoriano89/Extensions-enhance-overview/issues/3
Invoking Alt+F2 lg to launch looking glass offers a semi-transparent
overlay and a script interpreter which is superficially functional (if
you don't move your mouse around) I can get a report of window actors
for example, by following the Gnome-shell debugging walkthrough.
However, if I move the mouse over the top bar of the looking glass
application, the whole of Gnome-shell freezes and needs to be relaunched
in order to get any interactivity back. X clients are still operational
after an CTRL+ALT+F1 and kill and restart of gnome-shell on DISPLAY=:0
Attached is the standard error from gnome-shell which results from
replicating the issue deliberately (after an initial restart of gnome-
shell).
In the meantime, given I can't fix the extension, is there any way at
all that I can filter the overview to show windows which belong to a
specific application. This is a critical capability for modern desktops,
where in my case I can have 15 or so browser windows and the same number
of Evince windows when doing research. Without filtering, as provided by
Unity and Expose, it's essentially impossible to navigate the desktop.
