Description Michael Biebl 2017-10-16 14:40:09 UTC 
When browsing through the menu of a non-maximized window, the top bar flickers.
It quickly changes between solid and translucent.

I recorded this behaviour, you can find a screencast at 
https://people.debian.org/~biebl/gnome-shell-topbar.webm

This problem is only reproducible under Wayland. I don't see it under Xorg.

I could confirm the problem both in Debian sid (using GNOME 3.26.1) and Ubuntu 17.10.
