Really, terrible, security vulnerability issues? DRI and networking kennel modules should absolutely not be able to interact with each other at all.

"kernel module" together with "should absolutely not be able to interact with each other" are an impossible requirement with Linux.

I think the other operating systems available for the Pi are roughly in the same boat (Windows & RiscOS). There was a nascent Minix port at some point, I wonder if it was abandoned.

Linux is (currently) a monolithic kernel and I'm not sure that can be accomplished without changing this.
