Description

**Describe the bug**

Right-clicking on the tabs at the bottom of Guake when using Wayland crashes the program.

**Expected behavior**

The appropriate right-click menu to create a new tab should appear.

**Actual behavior**

The program freezes for a few seconds and then crashes, requiring a restart of Guake. It reads in the terminal as a 'segmentation fault'. If I force Guake to run in X11 mode with XWayland by using `env GDK_BACKEND=x11 guake` then it works fine, but this is somewhat inconvenient and I want to run as few programs through X11 as possible.

**To Reproduce**

I'm using up-to-date Fedora 43 with the default GNOME desktop. I never had this issue when I was on Debian previously, but since the version of GNOME that ships with Fedora forces you to use Wayland I have since encountered this issue.
