If anyone can't wait (like me), I've built an Xorg binary for Ubuntu Jaunty that restores this AllowDeactivateGrabs functionality and also includes the patch provided in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/334626 that stops regular server crashing, especially when running vmware player. Binary is at http://www.aaa.net.au/campbell/Xorg.tar.bz2 and is a drop-in replacement for /usr/bin/Xorg but do back up your original. If installing you'll likely need to stop the gdm service, then restart it after you're done.
