I am having two problems.

X is *really* slow to me until the desktop has finished loading. So slow 
I can't select a username from the login screen unless I wait for a 
while. This didn't happen in F11.

For my particular bug it's likely that people will use suspend/resume. 
This works well and doesn't trigger the bug. If a lot of people use 
suspend/resume they have a good workaround and there will be no bug reports.

Bug is here:

I get another bug where X crashes if I unplug the USB keyboard, wait 
some time, then plug it in again:
  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=538500

and another bug where X essentially hangs forever when I resume from a 
suspend (this is fixed now):
