Invalid for Mir. The mir demos work fine.
It's only when packaged for snappy that the bug exists.

Then again, we don't have a valid project to log snappy bugs against :(

Also if you're building an appliance it might be a *feature* that VT switching doesn't work. Still would be nice to know why...

Apparently some other impassable bugs are magically fixed since Snappy became an official release. This needs retesting.

That would be surprising, but not impossible.
The Mir framework package is running unconfined as root. There's very little it shouldn't be able to do.
