That bug was reported against the shell when the Evolution bug was
closed, stating that the stack trace showed that it was a bug in the
shell, not Evolution.

At the end of the day, I don't much care which part of the stack it is
reported against, but that it gets fixed.  Since Fedora 27 there has
only been one cursory look at the problem and no fix attempts, even
though it affects most Fedora users on the default Gnome shell.

The common thread to all of these scenario reports seems to be that
Xwindows cleanup is being invoked on app teardown when it should not
be, and then always causing a complete loss of shell.
