There are a few issues here. One is that bugs in the GPU itself can enable memory corruption (and thus code execution), and the other is that GPU drivers are notoriously buggy and huge, making a large attack surface. I can't blame them for being concerned in this case -- opening the GPU to web developers at large opens up a huge can of worms.
