Steps to reproduce:

On Ubuntu/Jammy, using 1:91.9.1+build1-0ubuntu0.22.04.1, I'm dragging mail from the main INBOX to other (sub)folders. This works, for a couple of moves, but then Thunderbird becomes completely unresponsive and the GNOME window-is-not-responding message pops up.

Actual results:

Thunderbird deadlocks and cannot wake up. Only the Force Quit button works. After which I can restart Thunderbird and resume cleaning of my INBOX.

Expected results:

Thunderbird should just keep running so I can keep moving e-mails to different subfolders.

Basically it appears like Wayland has something to do with this.
When starting thunderbird with XDG_SESSION_TYPE=x11 WAYLAND_DISPLAY= it looks like Thunderbird behaves normally and no deadlocks occur.

One of the things that stand out, is that without Wayland enabled, the following messages are not observed on stderr anymore:

> Unsupported modifier, resource creation failed.
> XXX: resource creation failed

But that may be unrelated.
