yeah and sometimes X is buggy and hangs with consuming 100% CPU
while every mouse-click will be registrated many seconds later
and you are unable to logout properly

in this state CTRL+ALT+F2 does not work even

so if CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE would be active as all the years before
you could use this and 20-40 seconds later you get a login-screen
instead shutdown with ACPI-Power-Down
