When using a tiling window manager, windows don't have server side decorations, therefore closing a window relies on a keybind or through a button/action inside the application; knowing this, this is how you can get softlocked:
Make changes to an image and don't save
Enable window mouse pass-through
Press ESC or try to close the app through a keybind
You will get a menu saying "Do you want to close without saving?" and be softlocked!
At this stage, you won't be able to interact with the menu or close the app in any way. You will be forced to kill the app by launching a terminal and killing it, losing all your progress.
This could be fixed by either making ESC toggle that menu (equivalent to pressing NO if the menu is open), disabling the mouse pass-through mode when a modal like that appears or both.
