PopupMenuManager was connecting to notify::key-focus on the stage on construction, but only ever reacting to it when one of its menus was open. Given that every single app icon and text entry creates a PopupMenuManager this was causing a lot of these handlers to be created. Every single handler meant calling into JS code only for the vast majority of them to determine that they would not do anything. Additionally these handlers were leaked for the whole lifetime of the stage due to never getting disconnected. This now only connects the handler when a menu is open and disconnects again when it is closed, significantly reducing the number of active handlers at a time.

GNOME Shell
GNOME Shell provides core user interface functions for the GNOME desktop, like switching to windows and launching applications. GNOME Shell takes advantage of the capabilities of modern graphics hardware and introduces innovative user interface concepts to provide a visually attractive and easy to use experience.
For more information about GNOME Shell, including instructions on how to build GNOME Shell from source and how to get involved with the project, see the project wiki.
Bugs should be reported to the GNOME bug tracking system. Please refer to the Schedule wiki page to see the supported versions.
Contributing
To contribute, open merge requests at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell.
Commit messages should follow the GNOME commit message
guidelines. If a merge request
fixes an existing issue, it is good practice to append the full issue URL
to each commit message. Try to always prefix commit subjects with a relevant
topic, such as panel: or status/network:, and it's always better to write
too much in the commit message body than too little.
Default branch
The default development branch is main. If you still have a local
checkout under the old name, use:
git checkout master
git branch -m master main
git fetch
git branch --unset-upstream
git branch -u origin/main
git symbolic-ref refs/remotes/origin/HEAD refs/remotes/origin/main
