Desktop Team Updates Companion thread - User questions and suggestions

Dear Ubuntu Developers!

Thank you for your weekly status updates:

As I saw that @3v1n0 backported some patches from Daniel to Mutter, I would kindly ask @oSoMoN, if he could consider backporting a patch as well: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1623060

I guess that Focal will ship with Firefox 75 on the image and this should help with a better Firefox adaptation to Mutter 3.36 and lead to a better Focal ootb experience.

That patch was too late to be uplifted to Fx 75, but Linux maintainer Martin Stransky is going to backport it to Fedora 31 and 32.

@3v1n0: this Mutter patch is brand new and probably worth backporting: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/commit/e8d9996c9ca009f44593754564d03256a18c139c

It should fix the remaining clipboard bugs.

The fix landed on the 3.36 and 3.34 branches, too.
