Description Benjamin 2015-09-29 18:39:10 UTC 
So, running Gnome-Shell on Wayland in ArchLinux, when I press Alt+Tab with Firefox focused, the menubar appears as soon as Tab is pressed (as if the Alt+Tab didn't happen, and firefox only saw the Alt key release event), and at the same time the application switcher comes up.

Possibly related: When I hit ctrl+n (new window) in firefox, never release ctrl, and then hit k (so, ctrl+k, focus search) it just types the letter k in my homepage. Same for any other letter.

Gnome-Shell version 3.16.3 from extra, testing and multilib enabled.

Just ran an upgrade, now on version 3.18.0-1 from testing.
Same behavior observed as before.
