Please can the this importance of this bug be raised to "severe", because that what a reproducible x-windows total crash is?

Please can it then be pushed upstream to x-windows? Whether it is java that is causing X-windows to crash or not, X-windows should handle the error more gracefully than this, so there is at least an enhancement that could be done to X-windows here, and possibly to java too.

My system occasionally crashes with symptoms like this (definitely not while using the java debugger, but I might have had some java applications running in the background, I'm not sure), so I hope fixing this bug will make my linux experience generally more robust.
