So I've now got version 2:2.12.0+shadow-2 of xserver-xorg-video-intel installed. HTML5 still crashes X but it comes right back up again. This is can be reproduced. Using Chrome with the following info from about:version
Google Chrome 8.0.552.5 (Official Build 62886) dev WebKit 534.10 V8 2.4.9.1 User Agent Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US) AppleWebKit/534.10 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/8.0.552.5 Safari/534.10 Command Line /opt/google/chrome/google-chrome --flag-switches-begin --disable-outdated-plugins --enable-tabbed-options --flag-switches-end This still happens and the bug still exists in the new version.
