I missed this one.  I know that there were some misunderstandings with
the thing about removing virtual terminals, which turned out to not be
the case. 

So, are they serious about removing ctl+alt+backspace, and if so, is
there a replacement? 

(Yes, I know I should look up the lists myself, but I figure someone
here probably knows and I'd be grateful if someone saved me the
trouble.)

If it is true, then Adam, this might be the sort of thing you were
talking about--a decision made that I suspect the majority of the
community, many of who use Fedora because they are old timers who
started with Redhat back when it was one of the few existing
distributions, would strongly dislike.  

However, at present, I'd like confirmation that this is really being
considered.

Xander: I'm not worried. If there's something bad out there, 
we'll find, you'll slay, we'll party.
