Regarding the "One X per GPU" comment: It is not 100% clear whether that comment only covers running two X servers simultaneously off the same GPU (e.g. one card running two different X servers on two different monitors simultaneously) or whether that covers the user switching scenario too (two X servers on the same GPU but not not necessarily changing the screen the same time but rather co-operatively). Someone will have to explicitly ask NVIDIA what that statement does and doesn't cover (ideally with examples).

If NVIDIA indicate that the later case is not supported (and can say why) and they do not wish to hear about issues arising from it, then I would recommend a new bug report be created separately from this. That way VT switching issues are kept separate and people having user switching issues on the NVIDIA binary only drivers are at least informed about its situation.
