I personally wouldn't mind a kill all grabs button/key/whatever. Even
if you can debug a grab issue, you don't always have the time or the
right machine (debugging symbols and friends) to do it.

Daniel,
If the kill all grabs functionality came back as an XKB action, that
wouldn't help in this situation, would it, given that CTRL-ALT-number
isn't working, which would seem to indicate that a synchronous grab is
