Website becomes unresponsive after using touchpads to enter overview

Steps to reproduce:
1. Open GTK 4 Epiphany Technology Preview
2. Use a three-finger swipe on a touchpad to enter Gnome Overview
3. Click on the Epiphany window to get back
4. Try to click on website elements
5. Observe how the website is not responsive

Remark: the browser UI is responsive. Other tabs, bookmarks popover, closing window, etc. work properly.

Epiphany Technology Preview (WebKitGTK 2.37.1, branch: wip/exalm/gtk4)

I think this is a GTK issue. I see similar things with other widgets, though not consistently - for example:

- GtkNotebook tabs can't be clicked or dragged (not to be confused with AdwTabBar, I'm testing this in minibrowser)
- GtkTextView doesn't receive clicks and trying to drag will initiate DND instead of selecting text
- GtkListBox rows can't be clicked.

Please open an issue in GTK if there isn't one yet.

Correction: mutter issue even. GTK never has a chance to cancel the gesture sequence as gnome-shell silently takes it over to open overview.
