[Bug 429635] Re: eeepc 1000h, rfkill hotkey freezes eeepc when switching off an active wireless connection

[GiuseppeVerde]

As the ever-quotable mjg said about the Xorg kill keycombo:
"Everyone involved agreed that not having a keystroke that caused
 immediate data loss was a sensible idea." --Matthew Garrett

If you leave things as they are, you are doing precisely this--leaving a
keystroke that causes immediate data loss. What's more, the key is
*right next to the screen brightness buttons*. I've hit this key
accidentally several times in the last few months, with the
aforementioned consequences.

This needs high-priority and *some* sort of fix (make the switch work
properly, make it not crash the machine, or make it not work at all),
and it needs it before Karmic hits gold.
