FWIW, the new EGL backend for Mir shouldn't suffer from this issue as it respects the config selected by the app. Here's the PPA if someone wants to try [1].

[1] Note that the new EGL will NOT work with the old (existing) EGL apps yet. You need to port your app (in a trivial way) to use it. Once ported, the old and new EGLs will coexist (i.e. you don't need to port all Mir apps to use the new EGL). Let me know (camako@IRC).
