I think this was poorly implemented. If any of the concerned parties wish to discuss here, great. Otherwise I'll file a bug on.

I proposed to add a mode might call "intel+nv_cuda" for this mode. Test procedure: 1. install the new package on a platform with both intel and NV graphic card. 2. $ sudo prime-select intel+nv_cuda; sudo reboot 3. $ nvidia-smi # it will show the nvidia GPU status and we will found that no GUI process use any NV GPU memory.
