For me the problem is contrl-alt-backspace isn't that far removed from 
contrl-alt-delete, which on most systems I use brings up either a logout 
window or task manager, or something similar. I use that key combo a 
lot. On many keyboards delete and backspace are pretty close. So I think 
it is possible for people to accidentally hit C-A-B when aiming for 
C-A-somethingelse - more than you think.

That said. I've never done it by accident myself, as far as I can recall.

just my 2 pence worth ...
