       AGREED AcceptedFinalBlocker Discussed at the 2025-09-22 (blocker / freeze exception) review meeting: This bug is accepted as a violation of the cited criterion, counting 'drag tab to create a new window' as a "regular operation" for a browser. It is noted that while chromium/chrome is not the default browser in any Fedora edition, they are very widely used so we can expect this bug will be commonly encountered, and the consequence is very bad (full desktop crash). https://meetbot-raw.fedoraproject.org//blocker-review_matrix_fedoraproject-org/2025-09-22/f43-blocker-review.2025-09-22-16.01.txt FEDORA-2025-84e8ed404b (mutter-49.0-4.fc43) has been submitted as an update to Fedora 43. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2025-84e8ed404b FEDORA-2025-84e8ed404b has been pushed to the Fedora 43 testing repository.
