Description
A keyboard shortcut that kills a programm, that is currently in focus, or in fullscreen.
If it hangs and no gui way to kill it is possible (can't run system monitor, X stucks, alt+tab does not work), it is yet possible to switch to another console and type killall -KILL process, but first you need to find it's name, to enter it correctly...
So it would be nice to have a shortcut for all this, guided by focus/fullscreen

You mean like Ctrl+Alt+Esc in KDE?

In Gnome you can just add "force quit" to the taskbar. Don't know about Kubuntu though.

"force quit" is usable only when no fullscreen apps running, or alt+tab works. If there is no access to Gnome Panel by any reason, it's useless.

You can configure xbindkeys to run xkill when you hit a key combination you specify to xbindkeys. Example:
~/.xbindkeysrc:
"xkill"
Control-shift-Esc

The Ctrl+Shift+Esc shortcut should be there by default.

xkill hotkeys should be enabled by default

a question out of ignorance...
This sounds great... but when a full screen game last barfed on me I hit CTRL-ALT-DEL which either switched me back to full screen or it didn't... if it didn't I assumed things here hung dead right to the kernel level no?
Would this be implemented deep enough to have an effect if things were seriously impared?
