For the impatient:

I downloaded
* nvidia-180-kernel-source NVIDIA binary kernel module source
* nvidia-180-modaliases Modaliases for the NVIDIA binary X.Org driver
* nvidia-glx-180 NVIDIA binary Xorg driver

from https://edge.launchpad.net/~anders-kaseorg/+archive and installed
them (had to deactivate the previously installed driver using Jockey
before I could install). After installation I rebooted, enabled the 180
driver in Jockey and rebooted again.

The packages are for Jaunty but I installed them on Intrepid which seems to 
work OK for me. The OOo issues and the logout screen garbage are fixed for me, 
the systray icon background issue is still there (I'm using KDE4).
The only weird thing I've notices so far is a slight font problem in that 
sometimes it looks like some pixels from the caracters aren't drawn. I prefer 
this to the other issues with the older drivers.
