Title:
Drag-and-drop from Nautilus causes Mutter to close Wayland connections
Status in Mutter:
Fix Released
Status in mutter package in Ubuntu:
Won't Fix
Bug description:
When dragging a file from Nautilus to another window (either another
Nautilus window or a GNOME Terminal window), and you hold down the alt
key while dropping, Mutter closes the connection to the target
application (which GDK handles by calling `_exit(1)` unconditionally).
When the target application is a GNOME Terminal window, the entire
GNOME Terminal Server exits, so all terminal windows close. This is
likely to lead to data loss (I have personally experienced having many
very important terminal windows with neovim just close because I dared
to drag and drop a file into another terminal window instead of typing
out the path).
I made an issue upstream:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/issues/1789, but I thought it
should be in Launchpad as well.
