You're right. I don't mean to offend anyone, but considering the fact
that vlc (at least by me personally) is used mostly in fullscreen
mode, I like to have the functions of the embedded video, even if it's
buggy. :)

The place for vlc + this patch is right however, in a PPA repository
and not in ubuntu repositories, third-party and unsupported. :)

As safe as a third-party patch: no guarantees and no support
whatsoever - if you use the package with the patch, you enable the
crashes that come with it.
If you wish to use it, do NOT add the ppa in your repositories!!

Instead, download and install the *.deb package files from this url:
