--- Comment #5 from Olivier Fourdan <[email protected]> ---
The reproducing steps remind me of
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1278159 where the tooltip in the
vlc progress bar would cause a large X11 traffic and eventually cause a
deadlock between Xwayland and the compositor.

Commit https://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/commit/?id=b79eaf1 was meant
to mitigate this and try to avoid the deadlock (although I am not sure it's
entirely possible to avoid it) but the code in vlc causing this is probably
still there...

However, weston was not affected as it doesn't do X11 rountrips, so maybe it's
a different issue...
