It isn't intermittent for me either and happens at least three or four
times a day. I've now taken to using Thunderbird as little as possible,
and closing it as soon as I've read or sent my mail.

Title:
  Alt-tab stops switching windows [JS ERROR: TypeError: window is null
  _createWindowClone@resource:///org/gnome/shell/ui/altTab.js:29:27]

Status in GNOME Shell:
  Unknown
Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  When a new Wayland session is created from a login, Alt-tab works as
  expected to change windows.  After sometime Alt-tab fails to do
  anything (super-tab still works to change applications) and the
  following error is created in syslog:

  gnome-shell[777718]: JS ERROR: TypeError: window is
  
null#012_createWindowClone@resource:///org/gnome/shell/ui/altTab.js:29:27#012_init@resource:///org/gnome/shell/ui/altTab.js:1004:34#012_init@resource:///org/gnome/shell/ui/altTab.js:1045:24#012_init@resource:///org/gnome/shell/ui/altTab.js:568:30#012_startSwitcher@resource:///org/gnome/shell/ui/windowManager.js:2069:24

  The only workaround I have found is to logout and log back in, however
  after some time the error repeats itself.
