Input Leak in Overview/Launcher (Mouse Clicks Pass Through)

Hi, thanks for the great project.
I noticed an issue with the Overview/Launcher (triggered via Super key):

🐛 Problem

When the launcher/overview is open:

  • Keyboard focus is correctly captured, but
  • Mouse clicks pass through to background windows
  • Clicking anywhere interacts with the applications behind Hyprshell
  • The launcher does not close and does not block pointer input

This makes the launcher feel non-modal and inconsistent with expected behavior.

✅ Expected

When the launcher/overview is open:

  • All pointer input should be captured by Hyprshell
  • Background windows should not receive mouse events
  • The launcher should behave like a focused modal overlay

🖥 System

  • Hyprshell v4.8.1
  • Hyprland 0.52.1
  • Arch Linux 6.17.8-arch1-1, Wayland

Thanks for your great work!
