It shouldn't crash. And it should support Xinerama. In the current state, only ati and intel seem to support randr-1.2. All other drivers need Xinerama for multihead configurations. Think of the case where you want to use an intel card and another card with a non-randr-1.2 aware driver.

So as long as most of the drivers don't support randr-1.2, Xinerama should still be a supported feature.

I currently use the old i810 driver that I patched to build against the current Xorg 7.3 headers to get Xinerama working. However, this only works because my hardware (i965) was already supported by the i810 driver.
