Bug Description

"ubuntu-mate-default-settings" ships a file

> /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/90-zap.conf

which enables Ctrl+Alt+Backspace to restart the X server. I've lost quite a bit work because of this.

I can't even disable this setting in the keyboard options, probably because it's hard-coded in this config file.

It was once decided that this should be off by default, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/XorgCtrlAltBackspace
