This is happening for me on machines with a single display (laptop, no external monitor connected), so if that other bug is accurate that it's just about multi-monitor displays, then that's not the problem here. I'll try without extensions and see what happens.

The first time I had just logged into a Google account in Chrome, and it popped up the window asking me if I wanted to switch to a new Chrome profile rather than logging into that account in the same profile, and I clicked the yes button to do that, and then my screen simply hang and refused to do anything for about 30-45 seconds, after which it unhung. The mouse pointer moved during the hang but nothing else. The second time I attempted to open an external drive that was mounted by clicking on its icon in the dock, and the open animation appeared but the folder didn't open. I clicked again and the open animation appeared again but again the folder did not open. At this point everything hung--once again, mouse cursor moved but nothing else would happen no matter what I typed or clicked. Waiting this one out didn't work; I had to SSH into the machine from another bo and kill -9 the gnome-shell process to escape.
