Title:
  Sure way to crash Gnome-Shell in Ubuntu 13.10 and Ubuntu Gnome 13.10

Status in d-conf package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in dconf package in Fedora:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  This affects Gnome-Shell 3.8 up to the latest build from
  Gnome3-Staging Gnome-Shell 3.10 on Ubuntu 13.10 and Ubuntu Gnome 13.10
  daily builds, as of today!

  1. Start gnome-terminal (has to be gnome-terminal - other term apps don't appear to produce this bug).
  2. run sudo su and enter your password
  3. run gedit or nautilus but definitely gedit is confirmed by 1 other person
  4. Flick your mouse up to Activities
  5. Gnome-Shell is dead

  ctrl+alt+f1 - login and run stop gdm or stop lightdm depending on your Ubuntu build
  start lightdm or gdm - attempt to login to gnome - no desktop will appear and if you switch back to the console you can see gnome-shell running like crazy.

  I've tried killing X, and confirmed all gnome service aren't running
  then tried start gdm or start lightdm and still nothing works.

  Have to restart PC to recover.

  Happy to test this and give you any logs you need.
