Description of problem:
As I just upgraded my system to Fedora 43, I'm trying Plasma on Wayland for the umpteenth time.

I wanted to start Spectacle to get a screenshot of a failing Firefox launch (the windows continue to flicker and I can not interact with them in any way). Simply starting Spectacle caused this crash, even before its window was presented.

Version-Release number of selected component:
spectacle-1:6.5.2-1.fc43

My cat activated Spectable by walking on the keyboard, then I pressed Escape and got this crash.
