Right, but he says that X was crashing. If it crashes, there's nothing
there to listen for the ctrl-alt-backspace and do anything about it...


I think we all know he meant frozen X VS a crash loop, pedant. :)

Just because upstream changed the DontZap default doesn't mean Fedora won't patch it back to working how just about everyone *wants* it to work. In fact, I'd bet on it, because it would reflect poorly on Fedora if they *didn't* patch it. Keeping ctrl-alt-backspace around provides way more benefit to Fedora's main audience than it does in protecting the rare desktop user from accidentally discovering this killer keycombo.
