Those that see use in it can enable if desired. Am filing this bug first rather than specific against gnome-shell because this is immediately remedied in settings & there are reports of other poor behavior than the below test case. Test case 1: In current 'pseudo' default of xorg In any common video player (totem, vlc, mpv, ect.) open a video. Go from window to fullscreen, fullscreen to windowed, notice the distortion. May be even worse in wayland or when using hw decoding.
