This has been discussed far too much already, in various venues. For example,
see "Shortening the rope" -- http://lwn.net/Articles/327141/ -- and the comments
at the bottom of that page.
I do hope that Xorg will implement my idea. If they do, more users will realize
that killing X using the shell is an easy alternative, and so less users will
continue to request that Ctrl+Alt+Bksp should be on by default.
