Hmm, I've had a mpv playing a video file hard lock-up a system several
times (dunno if it was a corrupt video file, or another cause). 
Suddenly the screen would go oddly darker, looking like there was a
flyscreen in front of the image, then start to smear video as it slowly
drew on the screen.

I expected to be able to CTRL ALT BACKSPACE to kill X and recover, but
rarely did it recover from this.  The system seems far from crash-
proof.
