I tried reproducing this problem in Debian with whatever the window
manager is in Gnome, and was unable to.  So perhaps this has been fixed?
In any case, a workaround exists, and more information was requested
five years ago, so I doubt there'll be any further progress here, so I'm
closing this bug report.
