Overriding X on panic

Linus did say that he would do anything within reason to help desktop
linux forward, and frankly a big step forward would be to get error
messages to the user. What might be some safe options for overriding,
switching away from, killing, or otherwise disposing of the X server
when an unrecoverable Oops is about to occur on the TTY?
