If I understand this correctly, the problem is that when Compiz is some applications crash, among them braid and some other screensavers. So far it has only been reported with the proprietary NVIDIA driver ("nvidia") and the Intel driver ("intel"). Does anyone have solid information that this bug does not in fact manifest with other drivers? If so, then concentrating on isolating and fixing some problem in these two drivers seems like the right thing to do. If not, then it seems to me that Compiz is a better suspect than the screensavers, since they've been working just fine forever and ever. I guess it's possible that previously unknown bugs in these hacks are exposed this way, but it seems a bit far-fetched.
