Most Ubuntu users stick to the default session type which is now
Wayland. And most Ubuntu users probably never open Thunderbird. So the
subset of users affected by bug 1932328 is small compared to the overall
set size (millions?). A fix is committed for bug 1932328 and coming in
the next update.

We've been focussed on and discussing this issue for several years now,
waiting for the right time to default to Wayland. We waited longer than
other distros and made the switch in the April 2021 release. Asking to
change it back for one Thunderbird bug makes no sense.

Aside from anything else, you can just choose Xorg on the login screen
if you don't like the Wayland session. Change it once and your choice is
remembered. You will never see Wayland again.
