Bug Description

Budgie Panel (or sometimes even the whole session) crashes when dragging items out of Budgie's task icon list.

Notes: Budgie Panel is placed on bottom on the very bottom screen (of 3).
Dragging them downside out of screen causes the crash.

Crash details:
Either budgie-panel freezes (and restarts after ~10 secs),
or the whole session crashes and one ends up at the display manager's login screen.

This issue also applied to Ubuntu Budgie 19.04.

Appears to be not reproducible in an Ubuntu Budgie 20.04 amd64 Live system.

thanks - I suspect then its a mutter issue that has been resolved.

Since 19.10 is end-of-life very soon there isn't much point really to spend any time on this resolving.

Managed to reproduce this under 18.04.4, unfortunately.

Differences:
- It only happens sometimes. Seems like there's some (unknown) precondition.
- There's no freezing. Either budgie-panel or the whole session will crash right away.

Another finding:
There's a 3rd case what can happen: Panel crashes but doesn't reopen again.

Could make it crash twice. After the first time it restarted. So I waited a short while and made it crash again. Didn't reopen anymore.

I would guess, if I hadn't waited, the whole session would have crashed (gonna try this out now).

Indeed, crashing it twice within a few seconds will make the whole session “crash” – just like doing `killall budgie-panel` twice.
