Just to clarify, living with this regression is probably OK for displays of 60Hz, close to 60Hz or greater. In that case you'll only see periodic glitches like I do every few seconds.
However, displays of significantly less than 60Hz may be dramatically affected, glitching several times per second. I haven't set up the hardware to prove this, but expect it could be unbearable for say 50Hz modes. So we do need to fix this ASAP. Visual quality is a key feature of Mir we don't want to go backwards very often.
