Title:
  Context menus do not appear for Gtk text areas upon right-click

Status in GTK+:
  Confirmed
Status in gtk+3.0 package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  When right-clicking on Gtk text areas (such as an editable text area
  or a text entry field), a context menu does not appear.  The pop-up
  context menu typically lists options such as copy, paste, etc.

  EXAMPLES

  Examples of applications that are impacted include:
  1. Gedit Text Area
  2. Nautlus (editable address bar)
  3. Google Chrome URL bar
  4. GtkHash (text entry fields)

  Interestingly the text areas of some other applications do show pop-up 
context menu when right-clicked:
  1. Libre Office Writer
  2. Web pages in Google Chrome that require text entry (such as this web page)

  RECREATING ISSUE

  I do not have a consistent way to recreate this issue (yet). When I
  first log in, the right-click context menus work fine.  After some
  time of usage, the right-click context menus no longer appear.  If I
  use the computer long enough (over an hour) without rebooting, this
  issue always appears.

  This issue seems to only affect widgets that require text entry.
  However, there is one exception I have noticed: the tabs in Google
  Chrome stop showing pop-up context menus at the same time as this
  issues manifests itself for the rest of gnome-shell applications with
  text areas.

  
  OTHER CONTEXT MENUS

  Context menus for other widgets do appear upon right-click, as
  expected, and work fine.  For example, the context menu for window
  title bars appear when right-clicking on them.  The context menu for
  folders and files in Nautilus also appear when right-clicking on them.
