Whiteboard
The BulletProofX work item (falling back to vesa on X failure) was completed by cjwatson as part of ubiquity-dm. Enabling the full environment that failsafe-x provides is deferred until two upstart bugs are fixed.

Dropped work items:
Resolve non-ascii password issues: appears to no longer be necessary; you can't enter passwords requiring an IME in ubiquity anyway, and everything else seems to work with current GNOME
