pingnak, nearly all X video driver bugs result in systems that become unusable; so obviously it wouldn't make sense to list them all as critical! :-)
For video driver bugs, 'High' is sufficient. We reserve this priority for bugs that cause serious system crashes, data loss, affect a lot of users, haven't got an available workaround, etc.
I think your suggestion about adding to xscreensaver to auto-disable naughty screen savers is quite excellent; I would strongly encourage you to file a Wishlist feature request against xscreensaver for implementing this capability for Intrepid or Intrepid+1, and speak with Ted Gould about it.
