How to prevent OpenJDK 11 from changing the Window size due to some internal reason

The release to try is not JDK 11u but current builds of JDK 22. 
https://jdk.java.net/22/

We are hopeful we will be able to support Wayland in X11 compatibility 
mode in that release
using the work done in the Wakefield project and now integrated into JDK 22.

But the first caveat is that means supporting it only on Ubuntu 22.04 
and later.
Nothing else (for now), and nothing earlier (ever).

The 2nd caveat, is that in general (leaving aside Wayland) if there's a 
bug in the platform,
it is not always possible to work around it in JDK.

But if you can reproduce this on a desktop using Gnome 42 and later we 
can take a look
to see if it occurs on Ubuntu and what might be done.
