These problems have been seen several times over the past week and are partly covered by other bug reports so please mark as a duplicate if appropriate but I'm creating this report as I feel that all issues are connected.
The Dash to Dock extension at times:
is seen on the lock screen
changes size when hovering over a program launcher icon
loses it transparency
The last time I saw an issue was immediately after running an update in a terminal window. As soon as the process finished I noticed the Dash to Dock had changed appearance. As I couldn't remember how i fixed it previously I attempted to restart gnome-shell by Alt F2 > r and enter.
gnome-shell didn't restart gracefully as it should and gave the appearance of a crash as only program windows were visible, the remaining parts of the screen were black. I was eventually taken back to the login screen so had to restart all of the previously running programs.
This last issue of not being able to restart gnome-shell has been seen on a number of occasions over the last few days, in fact twice today and the last after a recent reboot with hardly any activity being carried out on the PC except to start a few programs using the Dock and running the update (which just found an update to Google Chrome).

What should happen:
With any number of applications running or workspaces enabled, gnome-shell should restart gracefully by using 'Alt F2 > r and enter'.
What does happen:
With just one workspace enabled, several applications can be started and gnome-shell can be restarted with 'Alt F2 > r and enter' without issue.
With multiple workspaces enabled, several applications can be started and gnome-shell can be restarted with 'Alt F2 > r and enter' provided all applications are started on the first workspace.
With multiple workspaces enabled, if several applications are started on different workspaces then gnome-shell will crash if restarted with 'Alt F2 > r and enter'. My last application was started on workspace 4.
