Problem with fullscreen applications

Yep, same problem here with 15.04 (both with GNOME 3.14 and with 3.16
from the PPA).  Fullscreen apps stop getting mouse events after a bit
(some initial clicks seem to work OK, but after a while the window
underneath starts getting them).

I'm pretty sure this is a gnome-shell bug, but so far I haven't looked
for existing bug reports.
