Mouse input latency in GNOME 44.1 Wayland sessions is one frame higher

Bug description:
[ Impact ]
Mouse input latency in Wayland sessions is slightly higher in 23.10
than 22.04 at the moment.
I might be imagining things and it does feel like only one frame
higher latency. But experimenting with MUTTER_DEBUG_TRIPLE_BUFFERING
seems to confirm my suspicion:
BAD: MUTTER_DEBUG_TRIPLE_BUFFERING=auto (the Ubuntu default)
BAD: MUTTER_DEBUG_TRIPLE_BUFFERING=always
GOOD: MUTTER_DEBUG_TRIPLE_BUFFERING=never
[ Test Plan ]
0. Find a machine with an Intel GPU.
1. Add this to /etc/environment: CLUTTER_DEBUG=frame-timings
2. Reboot.
3. Log in to a Wayland session and wait for the desktop to become
idle.
4. Also log in via ssh from a remote machine and run:
journalctl -f /usr/bin/gnome-shell
5. Over your idle desktop just wiggle the mouse continuously.
6. In your ssh login, verify that the resulting log messages from
gnome-shell say "[FRAME_TIMINGS]: Double buffering:" and not
"[FRAME_TIMINGS]: Triple buffering:" when only the mouse pointer is
moving.
[ Where problems could occur ]
In the frame rate and latency of the Ubuntu desktop experience.
