[Win Store] App crashes when snapping on startup

Windows Store Apps

-

Launch WSA application from "Start" menu. When splash screen appears, wait for a blink. After a blink, snap application to left or right. Application should crash without any messages. Log file doesn't show anything useful. Only sometimes there can be found a message "Exception occured in 'AppCallbacks::_AppThread' block."

Repro steps:
1. Create empty project;
2. Build to Win Store Apps;
3. Start debugging project from Visual Studio. Stop debugger and launch application from "Start" menu. When splash screen appears, wait for a blink(if you didn't change splash logo). After a blink, snap application to left or right. Application should crash;

Can't reproduce on 4.3.4f1 - 4.5.0a3;

Reproducible on:
4.5.0a4,
4.5.0a5,
4.5.0b1,
4.5.0b2;

    For the information of anyone coming across this when searching for snapping crashes on WSA:

    A similar issue is still happening in 4.5.3p3 though it now seems to manifest as a deadlock.
    This is reported in (private) issue 633691.
