Similar problem has been detected:

Restarted the shell with ALT-F2->r.

This is NOT supposed to KILL the entire session.

It is really super hideous that restarting the shell is crashing the
entire session.

It wouldn't be so bad except the shell and/or a minimum set of
extensions to make GNOME 3 actually usable are just not stable enough to
not need to reset the shell occasionally.

I can also confirm this problem which is easily reproduced on Fedora 29
by moving an application to workspace 4 and restarting gnome-shell from
workspace 4. I can restart gnome-shell from workspace 1 with no other
workspaces in use which is why I thought that Fedora 29 didn't have this
issue which I have seen in both Ubuntu 18.10 and Ubuntu 19.04 (the
current development version).
