For (A), I suppose (3) is not so risky, because we could always
guarantee to have beta version overlap.  For example, we could make sure
that 12.10 had experimental-500 and just keep the user on the same
version during the upgrade.

For (B), I was thinking more of a situation where the user barely reads
the dialog we throw up saying to install more packages (the dialog is
basically a big "just make it work" button anyway).  In that case, they
might not fully expect that installing a new game could affect their
whole desktop experience.  But we can fallback on our normal X handling
for that situation, like you say.  Not great, but not many choices,
except avoiding experimental drivers.

Well again, not much for MIR team to do here.  I'll mark the graphics
driver approved.  I'll give nvidia-settings a quick look over/rubber
stamp tomorrow.
