Public bug reported:

Pressing alt-f2 then r refreshes gnome-shell as expected (though now
windows have black borders) but it kills apps like Firefox, but not
Feedreader, nautilus, nor, gnome-terminal (those are what I tested).

I expect that it should not kill any apps like in the old gnome-shell.
This is useful since when gnome-shell hangs, I kill it and it refreshes.
Now I can't do that without killing the other apps also.

Thank you for looking into this bug.
