To emulate X11 grabs, mutter as a Wayland compositor would disable its own keyboard shortcuts and when the X11 window is an override redirect window (which never receives focus), it also forces keyboard focus onto that X11 O-R window so that all keyboard events are routed to the window, just like an X11 server would. But that's a bit of a “all-or-nothing” approach which prevents applications that would legitimately grab the keyboard under X11 (like virtual machine viewers) to work by default. Change “xwayland-allow-grabs” to control whether the keyboard focus should be locked onto override redirect windows in case of an X11 grab. For stringent needs, careful users can still use the blacklisting feature (i.e. a list containing “!*”) to prevent grabs from any X11 applications to affect other Wayland native applications. https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/issues/597
