That can be configured by people who need it.
To turn off ctrl-alt-del for non-x you edit /etc/inittab
In principle, it would be nice if X could just relay the information
to init (that the key combo is being pressed). In practice, it might
be acceptable to just put a comment into /etc/inittab (and the
app-defaults) pointing to the other location(s).
