I googled around and found a thread about this...
If you go into the Advanced Desktop Effects Settings, choose General and
Command, you can specify a command number and give it the command
"xkill". Then open the key bindings and choose a key binding for the
command number you chose. It doesn't look like you can use the esc key,
but I did get it to work using <ctrl><alt><end>. It looks like they
have a special command (Command11 on my system) setup to do the same
thing already, but it doesn't seem to work.
I never knew about the xkill command, it's nice to find.
