The X log says "Fatal server error: EnterVT failed for screen 0".
Nothing more specific.

Some more bits of info:

- Nothing bad happens if I manually (Ctrl+Alt+FN) switch between the
VTs.  But I'm guessing that's a deep kernel thing, a different code
path.

- If I instead try to reproduce by using unity8-greeter (which uses Mir
and USC just like a unity8 session does) and logging into an existing
unity7 session -- i.e. the same reproduction steps just with a greeter
instead of a session -- I can't reproduce.  So the biggest difference
here is that the USC/greeter session is torn down as part of the switch
(I don't know if before or after the switch yet).  With my original
repro steps, USC stays around the whole time.

Next step is to use chvt to test whether removing LightDM from the mix
helps.
