This bug is marked as "Won't Fix" because it won't be fixed. xserver-
xorg-video-intel is old and should not be used anymore. The default
built-in driver (called 'modesetting') should be used instead.

I'm not sure how safe it would be to remove xserver-xorg-video-intel
from the Ubuntu archive because people upgrading from older releases
where it was the only driver, might still have config files that depend
on it. Not being able to find the driver specified in your config file
would cause bigger issues than just "visual artifacts", like not being
able to log in.
