Admittedly, my solution was a bit lacking for a couple of reasons.
1. The new shortcut to bring up gnome-system-monitor -p was not present in
System Settings->Keyboard->Shortcuts.
2. The old shortcut in Keyboard shortcuts to use Ctrl-Alt-Delete to Log out was
still present.
This probably causes confusion for users and is kind of a bad design.
So I'm going to fix this for at least Trusty.
I will make a new shortcut in Keyboard->Shortcuts that sets Ctrl-Alt-Del
to open gnome-system-monitor -p. I will also set Log out to Disabled.
This way, it is clear to the end user what is going on here and is also
quite easy to set Ctrl-Alt-Delete back to Log out or something else
entirely.
What I need to do is ask Design which heading they want the new shortcut
to be under and what they want the wording to say.

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.)
