GNOME 3.30 will be released soon, and we're starting to upload the 3.29.92
release candidate to unstable, so I'm escalating this to serious severity.
There seem to be fixes upstream:

(I have not reviewed or tested these.)

Bug#905110: gnome-shell-extension-dash-to-panel: global.screen is not available in GNOME Shell 3.29

According to codesearch.debian.net, this extension uses the MetaScreen
via global.screen. MetaScreen no longer exists in GNOME 3.29, which is
starting to become available in experimental. This extension will need
code changes to use the MetaDisplay (global.display),
MetaWorkspaceManager (global.workspace_manager), MetaMonitorManager
(Meta.MonitorManager.get()) or MetaX11Display
(global.display.get_x11_display()).

Because GNOME 3.29/3.30 is not a stable release yet and is not in
Debian unstable yet, you'll probably need to condition on the GNOME
Shell version.
