I can confirm this bug on my system as well. Fedora 23 with latest updates, Nvidia driver 352.63 (manual install). I can't say for sure but I think it's because gdm uses wayland by default and falls back to X11 in case of Nvidia drivers. This fallback, I guess, is what's the culprit here.

Comment 2 Ray Strode [halfline] 2015-11-21 19:54:41 UTC

should be fixed with the gnome-shell in updates-testing
