UXA is noted here as a possible solution for EXA issues. What's wrong?

Test result for kernel-2.6.30rc2 + intel-2.7.0-1 (AccelMethod=UXA) on MSI Wind (Intel GM945):

Everything works stable, desktop doesn't freeze for almost 20 hours of work (earlier it was freezing every 1-3-5 hours).

There are no visual corruptions when moving or overlaying windows with compositing enabled (was fixed with very first UXA appearance indeed, and that is why only UXA is acceptable).

Compiz effects work subjectively smooth and fast, there are no such a lags as they were with kernel-2.6.28 with UXA enabled.

Fullscreen video plays normal, no lags.

So, it seems to me that problem was almost solved, except for this solution being "release candidate".
