The problem has been going on for months, the primary symptom for a long 
time was the nvidia driver, so I stopped using it for a while hoping 
that a solution would magically appear. As of the last 6 weeks or so the 
problem has started happening even without using the nvidia driver, and 
more users are reporting similar symptoms.

So in short, no, I won't be doing that, as there is way too much history 
to slog back through at this point.

What I would like to see is some sort of effort on the part of those 
who've made the changes to help debug what's wrong with them.
