Public bug reported:

I don't know what happened, but I just sat down at my machine to find it
sluggish.  Digging further, I find that gnome-shell is spamming the
system log with these messages:

May 13 12:06:42 cerberus gnome-shell[3120]: JS ERROR: TypeError: null has no 
properties
                                            
_onFocusChanged@resource:///org/gnome/shell/ui/closeDialog.js:135:9
                                            
actionMoveWorkspace@resource:///org/gnome/shell/ui/windowManager.js:2170:23
                                            
_showWorkspaceSwitcher@resource:///org/gnome/shell/ui/windowManager.js:2144:18


Restarting the shell with:
busctl --user call org.gnome.Shell /org/gnome/Shell org.gnome.Shell Eval s 
'Meta.restart("Restarting…")'
restored it to sanity.
