I can confirm the bug.

This is not Nvidia specific since I use the radeon driver on an ATI card.

I believe the hangs primarily appear when VMware looses focus, but are otherwise completely random. The rate is closer to 1:100 than 1:10.

Killing the 'gnome-shell' process with '-KILL' is a usable work around for me.
