Bug Description

I have updated Ubuntu 22.04 today and now when I press <Super> key and then "X" on any program and Ubuntu crashes and then login window appears. I can reproduce this problem any time on any program.

I don't know if I collected info correctly. I did:
ubuntu-bug gnome-shell

I think this crash might land in bug 1867578 in most cases but since that one is autogenerated and will never have all the data, we can track it here instead.

I wasn't able to reproduce this crash on current Ubuntu 22.04 LTS (but I didn't try on an old version of mutter either).
