Something like this suggestion by Peter or even hitting Ctrl-Alt-Backspace TWICE would also do it because then all the current tools with Ctrl-Alt-Backspace in their menues would still work. To send that sequence to the VM from a VMM such as virtmanager you would just issue the sequence twice. And that way, you don't need to have thousands of organizations modifying their xorg.conf for various installations, modifying their training, etc. And Emacs users won't "accidentally" hit the key sequence necessary to kill X.
