Bug Description

Ubuntu 23.04 Lunar
Mutter 44.3

upstream bug https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/issues/2690

From the upstream bug:

"When opening a new app window from the overview, the window focus is not properly given to the new window and the user input still go to the old focused window. Both windows appear to be in focus, however, the old window has the proper focus."

This may cause data loss or security issues due to input still going to another application if the user is not aware. This appears to be fixed in the latest mutter release 44.5, any chance we can get this in Lunar? Thanks.
