SUMMARY
Firefox in Wayland mode is completely unusable. The application seems to be
unresponsive as its window takes several seconds to update. Visual glitches can
be perceived when positioning other windows over Firefox.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Firefox with the environment variable 'MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND' set to some
value.
2. Try to interact with the application: move the mouse around, type something
in the address bar... changes take several seconds to reflect in the window,
although the application seems to be working properly and the mouse cursor
changes with responsiveness if you hover over a text area, for example.
3. Place other windows on top of Firefox for more fun.
EXPECTED RESULT
The Firefox window is responsive and it doesn't cause visual glitches on other
windows.
