Symptoms

The captured mouse in 1st person mode sometimes breaks free from the game in multi-monitor setups and leaks onto the other monitors. After breaking free there is a 30% chance that the next click on any window will crash the gnome-shell, which kills all running applications and sends the user back to the login screen. This is an issue with every game that allows the mouse cursor to seamlessly leave the game window in menus but captures it during gameplay.

Reproduction

Start the game, play the game. Run around and click things in 1st person. This issue happens randomly every 20 minutes or so.

EDIT: Doesn't seem to happen when Proton 9 is enforced.
