Public bug reported:
Shortly after upgrading to focal (a few days) I left my computer alone
and went and away for a good long while, long enough for the screen to
lock
Came back and
1) the screen was not locked,
2) the dock at the right hand side was still available and i could manipulate
it (ie click on the applications that were running, see the screenshots of them
when i mouse'd over them)
2) no windows could be seen.
I managed to for example click on the running bitcoin icon in the top right
hand corner, those were clickable too, but nothing did seemed to get the
windows back.
Alt-tab...
alt-crl up...
super-tab...
nothing i could think of
Wound up exiting out to terminal (ctrl-alt-f3, logging in) killing
gnome-shell and they all came back shortly there after.
