Proposed as a Blocker for 44-beta by Fedora user lruzicka using the blocker tracking app because: This violates the criteria for Desktop panel. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_44_Beta_Release_Criteria#Desktop_panel
The above problem is not seen on the previous nightly, i.e. 20260208, so the problem must have appeared in the last nightly.
