Well those people who are using that sequence right now say they don't hit accidentally. Experience trumps hypotheticals. That's no reason not to strive for an even better key sequence, though. Perhaps we could make C-x C-c a prefix key, with C-x C-c k killing Emacs, C-x C-c s killing Emacs but asking to save each buffer first (save-buffers-kill-emacs), and C-x C-c z being iconify-or-deiconify-frame? -- -David House, dmhouse@gmail.com
