I agree here, I think disabling Ctrl+Alt+BkSp by default makes no sense
whatsoever.
Sure, it's just a default setting, but that doesn't mean the default
shouldn't be sane.
And setting defaults is one of the things a distribution is for. I disagree
about the assertion that we should blindly follow upstream defaults.
Several packages have Fedora-specific default configurations. KDE even has
a kde-settings package for that purpose (and no, there's no way we're going
to remove that package). Many other packages ship with config files which
differ from upstream's defaults.
