Users usually press this key combo when something is wrong and their
system is very unresponsive.

In windows it gives you a Menu, not just one function (pic of w7
enterprise):

We can give users similar options and make this screen always be
responsive.

  Ctrl Alt Del doesn't do what most people typing it would expect

Bug description:
  Ubuntu 11.10

  1. Type Ctrl+Alt+Del.

  What happens: In Unity, a mutant version of the Log Out dialog
  appears.

  What should happen: The nearest equivalent to the Windows Task Manager
  appears. Currently, that is the "Processes" tab of System Monitor.

  (Implementing this probably would invalidate bug 485740.)
