When updating the input region we check whether the input shape reported by XShape matches the bounding region of a window to determine when it was not set by the client. We would then use a NULL input region instead which always matches the full size of the window. The code however was using the client rect for this comparison, which does not include the window frame. Since d991961a the frame is considered part of the input region. This meant that for SSD windows where the input region would match the bounding region, we would not detect that and fail to set the input region to NULL, but instead set it to the reported input shape. Usually this would not be the case due to the GTK frame window having shadows and a resize region, but in the presence of an issue that causes GTK to wrongly detect _GTK_FRAME_EXTENTS as not supported, GTK would not draw shadows or set an input shape. And due to GTK not updating its input shape, there would be no further calls to meta_window_x11_update_input_region() after the initial one. The input region would therefore remain at the fixed size from the initial call. This was causing windows to become click-through outside of the region corresponding to their initial size after being resized.

Mutter
Mutter is a Wayland display server and X11 window manager and compositor library.
When used as a Wayland display server, it runs on top of KMS and libinput. It implements the compositor side of the Wayland core protocol as well as various protocol extensions. It also has functionality related to running X11 applications using Xwayland.
When used on top of Xorg it acts as a X11 window manager and compositing manager.
It contains functionality related to, among other things, window management, window compositing, focus tracking, workspace management, keybindings and monitor configuration.
Internally it uses a fork of Cogl, a hardware acceleration abstraction library used to simplify usage of OpenGL pipelines, as well as a fork of Clutter, a scene graph and user interface toolkit.
Mutter is used by, for example, GNOME Shell, the GNOME core user interface, and by Gala, elementary OS's window manager. It can also be run standalone, using the command "mutter", but just running plain mutter is only intended for debugging purposes.
