YouTube currently collects WEBGL_debug_renderer_info when (Chrome or IE) users submit problem reports. They have offered to share these GPU correlations with Mozilla's video team.
This information would have been a huge time saver when we worked with YouTube to switch Firefox users from Flash to HTML5 video. We ran into many GPU driver bugs, from crashes to empty video frames, but we had no way to correlate these bug reports with specific GPUs or driver versions except through working with patient testers on Reddit.
