Stability is. Think of the damage a crashing Gnome application could do

thing creates. There is nothing you need to do as root that can't be done
from a console.

If either of you have rivafb support compiled into your kernels (or are
loading them as modules), you might want to avoid that. It's a known issue
with rivafb and Nvidia's binary-only drivers for X to lock on exit.
Rumours are that vesafb works just fine, though.
