Public bug reported:

Whenever I exit full screen in mpv (and presumably other applications
with an opengl context) I find myself with a frozen screen I cannot
interact with, and need to switch to another TTY to restart Unity or
lightdm.

Seems as though this has already been fixed in newer versions of xorg,
so its just a matter of backporting them to whatever shipped with 16.04.

Here's a patch that's already been accepted "upstream" (not sure if I'm using 
that right):
