I did, and it works. I ended up removing all of the
proprietary nvidia packages and reconfiguring the xserver-xorg
package to create a new xorg.conf from scratch, otherwise I was
getting video corruption both on the console X was assuming
control over and my normal text consoles (I don't run any
framebuffer stuff at all in my kernel).
But after doing all of that, the nv driver gave me a
pretty gdm login screen and my text consoles were still happy
also. So it looks like you can definitely close this bug
finally. :)
