Probably the fact it's not being used "when things just work" and is
only _necessary_ in situations of emergency/"when thinks go bizarre"
"Infrequently used" == "unnecessary"?
Some food for thought: How to quit X when X comes up but the
window-manager fails to come up?
In recent days, this has happened several times to me on FC10 (reason
yet unknown, probably somebody having messed up something related to
nis/yp, nfs, autofs). My escape: ctl-alt-bs.
