Do you have a pointer to an explanation of this “inherent issue” and why
it’s impossible to solve?

What I don’t understand, in particular, is _why_ GTK menus need to grab
the mouse and keyboard in the first place.  (But if this is an absolute
requirement, surely the GTK developers can work with the X developers to
come up with a new type of grab that’s cancelable by global shortcut
keys and by the screensaver.)
