For some reason, Fedora freezes after an unspecified amount of time. I'm able to move the mouse but everything else is unresponsive. So I just switch to console <CTRL>+<ALT>+<F2> and use "killall -s HUP gnome-shell" in root shell (#). Haven't tested any of the other Desktop managers but I'm pretty sure this is the only one.
How many monitors are you using?
It's probably not this - because you can get at the shell - but I notice sometimes my lock screen doesn't display the password popup on a monitor ( or more accurately displays it on a monitor it is not displaying anything on). When I type my password it unlocks and both screens then display as normal.

Please file bugs. I haven't come across these situations while using gnome3. The screen freeze does happen if you're using a 64bit kernel and making high i/o related operations. Its a kernel bug, fixed in 3.2
