Bug Description
When slowly resizing a gnome-terminal window from either the top edge or the left edge, the window is moved. The top/left edge moves with the cursor, but the bottom/right edge doesn't stay in place.
I assume this is because of how gnome-terminal can only be resized one line/column at a time. I assume resizing the window from the top or left edge works by moving the window up or to the left and expanding the width to make the bottom or right edge stay in place, and something about this logic has changed in a recent gnome-shell update to make it not account for windows which can't be resized pixel by pixel.
Attached is a video which shows the bug in action.

I just tested this in X11, and it's not an issue there. It seems to only affect GNOME on Wayland.
