Bug Description
Now that Ctrl-Alt-Bksp is disabled in Jaunty, Ubuntu needs a new universal way to restart the X server. Their are still plenty of reasons to restart the X server for which Ubuntu has no control, such as faulty proprietary video drivers.
I am aware that the user could configure nozap however that must be done beforehand. In Ubuntu's default configuration their should be a way to perform this commonly necessary feat.

I agree that there needs to be a way to restart a hung X from withing X. I propose ctrl+alt+bksp.
