I think it's great that this feature can now be turned on or off via the
GUI rather than having to manually edit xorg.conf. I also agree with
the general principle that default settings should normally be aimed at
beginning users, since it's much easier for experienced users to change
the settings to their liking.
In that case I vote that ctrl-alt-backspace should be on by default.
The reason? Well, we do not want to learn new users that in case of
X-windows trouble, reboot the whole machine (which in most cases is not
needed). Instead, we instruct them to use ctrl-alt-backspace, as we have
done for years now, to kill just the X-window.
If anyone have problem with ctrl-alt-backspace, he/she could then change
the default to his/her liking. But the default ought to be on.

ctrl-alt-backspace...)
