It seems the problem was Wayland + gnome-shell specific because gnome- shell is the display server and effectively single threaded. gnome-shell deadlocks on itself if it spawns a client synchronously and expects to wait for that client to finish. The client never finishes because the server isn't replying while it's waiting for the client to finish.
