Open a pull request. Click "Files changed" to get a diff view. Now try to do anything. Scroll with your finger, for example. Observe that the UI totally hangs; no finger scrolling, keyboard scrolling, selection, scrollbar action. If you're lucky, doing something like tapping with a stylus will unlock the UI for a few hundred milliseconds, giving it just enough time to jump to another part of the page. This might just be a particularly bad version of the wider "if there's any JS in the page, Metro is almost unusably slow" issue; not sure.

I think this is another manifestation of the bug where touch input sometimes stops working.
Was this using a release build or a debug build?
Official Nightly.

Is this still happening on today's (or later) nightly?

I just had essentially this exact experience with 07/23 Nightly on the Gmail 2-factor auth screen. Tapping, clicking, typing did nothing... until I hit the Windows button. As the app faded away (and the event loop cleared?), I saw the numbers I had typed appear in the box. Reopening this rather than comment on a dead bug, but feel free to morph/dupe.

I wonder if this is related to bug 840855 or perhaps bug 896896. It's a little frightening how frequently we seem to be dropping input messages. Perhaps we should do some kind of audit of all of our Windows message-handling code in metro?
