Comparison between Wayland and XWayland animations screencast

Description of problem:
The new GNOME 3.26 window maximize animations don't work on native Wayland apps under GNOME Wayland session, but it does work on XWayland apps!

Also, In Nautilus (Files) only; the hotkeys are different (Super + Left/Right should move the tiled app to the opposite side if the opposite arrow key is used, but it move it first to the  original sized window first, then pressing it again moves it to the tiled sized window on the opposite direction). Maybe, this is related or needs a separate bug for it.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gnome-shell-3.26.0-1.fc27.x86_64
mutter-3.26.0-4.fc27.x86_64
gedit-3.22.1-2.fc27.x86_64
nautilus-3.26.0-1.fc27.x86_64
slack-2.8.1-0.1.fc21.x86_64

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a native GNOME Wayland app like Nautilus or GEdit.
2. Maximize the window using Super + Up.
3. Half-tile the window to the right and the left using Super + Right/Left.

Actual results:
The window moves directly to the desired state without any animations more than a small fade-out/in.

Expected results:
The window uses the right animations.

Additional info:
I reported this against GNOME Shell component, but maybe it should be mutter, I really don't know.

Also I couldn't find the tracking bug of the feature itself here or on GNOME bugzilla; other that it was worked on in GUADEC in @mcalsen blog: https://blogs.gnome.org/mclasen/2017/06/08/rawhide-sightings/

I've just switched to the Xorg session and noticed that those apps (GTK3 Wayland apps like Nautilus and GEdit) work flawlessly under X.

This message is a reminder that Fedora 27 is nearing its end of life.
On 2018-Nov-30  Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for
Fedora 27. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases
that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as
EOL if it remains open with a Fedora  'version' of '27'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 27 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 3 Ben Cotton 2018-11-30 18:09:03 UTC
Fedora 27 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2018-11-30. Fedora 27 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
