This bug also affects me running TB 78.13.0 under Pop!_OS 21.04 with
Wayland.  It does not appear to compromise my ability to switch
windows/apps via ctl-tab, but it does prevent me from re-launching
Thunderbird via the GUI after quitting it (both the dock and application
launcher act like it's still running).  I'm able to relaunch it via
shell, but restoring normal operation requires restarting the DE (which
means logging out and back in, under Wayland).

Title:
  Thunderbird under Wayland does not correctly close (or manage) windows

Status in Mozilla Thunderbird:
  New
Status in gnome-shell-extension-ubuntu-dock package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Using Ubuntu 21.04 (Hirsute) that starts in Wayland, by default.
  Thunderbird version: 78.11.0 with "gnome-support" package.
  Same problem in safe mode.
  Description:
  By default in this context, TB is a Wayland task.
  When opening a compose windows (or reply or transfer), sending mail 
apparently close the windows, but gnome shell continue to show multiple 
"points", as if multiple windows are still active.
  And after closing TB, it seems maintained in the same state, so it becomes 
impossible to relaunch it from the desk. But task manager of "looking glass" 
does not show it and it is possible to launch from terminal.
  Provisional solution:
  Modify .desktop file to launch with --display=:0 option, that force to use 
XWayland interface, as shown by xlsclients (for example).
  But it is actually a bug under Wayland context, that also badly interfer with 
many add-ons or extensions.
