I don't recall if this got answered.
1. You can call up the command line using an Xterm or an Eterm within
KDE (or any other X-windows program). This is a very common thing.
2. You can use Alt-Ctrl-F1 (or F2, F3, etc) to go to a full screen
virtual terminal. F1, btw, is your virtual console.
Return with Ctrl-F7.
3. Many - not all, but many - window managers have an 'exit the
window manager' option.
