I mean, that's going to happen anyway.
The whole point of Vulkan/Metal/DX12 is that since GPUs have their own MMUs it's totally OK to seg fault your own process from the GPU side. You just crash your process, but you don't take down the system.
That line of thinking doesn't really translate well to a JS API.
