So I am confused---I thought it is a problem in Wayland, perhaps in its 
X11 emulation but still Wayland.  Yes, the app is misbehaving, but 
Wayland should be resistant to this 'fuzzing'.

Re, this being the GNOME bug, I think any app with this behavior will 
similarly crash wayland even if it is not GTK app, and regardless 
whether it's running under KDE or Gnome---but I was not able to 
understand the GTK app enough to write a minimal replication.

Perhaps you are implying that when Wayland is the only choice, X11 
applications will be replaced by wayland apps and the X11 emulation will 
be removed form Wayland, so this will no longer be an issue?

I thought I checked that the 'true' X11 server does not crash in this 
scenario,  but I realize now that I am not sure.

BTW, I did report this in Gnome as well
