Daniel: No, no regression... It's just that such fix is not enough: there dash-to-dock was handling (properly) the part of Overview startup Animation, but the problem may happen ever earlier.

As explained in https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/merge_requests/2763 (that would be the real fix), we may end up awaiting an event that won't ever happen.

Play with those scripts sleep values, and the problem happens since 42.

While we could fix this in gnome-shell itself, I preferred handling it in the dock first, and in future we could backport an upstream fix when merged.
