Switching workspaces with gestures sometimes gets interrupted and reverts to previous workspace

(1) Issue/Bug Description:

After a recent update I've noticed a really annoying behavior when switching workspaces. It seems to happen only when using the touch-pad gestures (4-finger swipe up/down). Basically, if I'm swiping between workspaces quickly, it seems sometimes one of the windows steals focus after I scroll past it. So it yanks me back to that desktop rudely, interrupting where I was trying to go.

It's easily reproducible for me by just opening multiple firefox windows on multiple workspaces, and just swiping up and down between them using the 4-finger touch pad gesture.

(2) Steps to reproduce (if you know):

1. Use tiled windows (no active hint, no window titles, gaps: 2)
2. Open 3+ firefox windows each in their own workspace
3. Enable "focus follows mouse" in Tweaks (I have this on but turning it off doesn't seem to fix is, just mentioning for completeness)
4. swipe between workspaces using 4-finger swipe touchpad gesture (it's not 100% of the time, you have to try for a bit)
5. Sometimes, it will quickly switch back to the workspace you just left

(3) Expected behavior:

When I change workspaces, it stays on the workspace I changed to.

(10) Other Notes:

Might be relevant: I'm using an Apple Magic Trackpad.

I feel like this didn't happen before and only started happening recently after an update. But this might be related: I think it used to maybe instead give me those "window is ready" notifications. Now instead of those notifications, it steals focus and switches workspaces.

Update to latest version on Pop!_OS 21.10

@andirsun reported this issue originally in the companion GNOME Shell X11 Gestures extension.

libinput 1.18 introduced a breaking change in the way deltas are reported.

The change is already handled upstream in 2.0.10.

Updating the package is required to avoid issues on Pop!_OS 21.10.

Screen cast of the issue:

Expected Behavior:
Context menu should be closed when gestures for workspaces are used(it works as expected with gesture for application library)
