Yes, they can just reboot, pressing ctrl-alt-del instead. But wait, that

X11 already eats Ctrl+Alt+Del.
Well, it isn't removed, as ctrl-alt-backspace is proposed to be (it was
that I meant wit "zap"), it shows a dialog.
Not sure what happens if X have crashed and one presses ctrl-alt-del
though, perhaps someone else who have experienced this could tell us?
Will it automatically shut down the system after 60 seconds, even though
X is not responding?
So in a situation where X have crashed, and neither ctrl-alt-del (if
that is the case) nor ctrl-alt-backspace works, one have to press the
reset button or power cycle the computer, a, in my humble opinion, very
bad and brutal way of solving a problem that was elegantly solved with
ctrl-alt-backspace.
