I looked up the French keyboard layout.

Granted I never had a reason to seek it out, but I have not seen anyone 
complain about
'Ctrl'+'Alt'+'Del' being difficult to press.

Compared to that 'Ctrl'+'Alt'+')' to get ^] does not seem any more 
difficult.

Unless you have set keyboard settings somewhere to have an excessively 
slow repeat,
as opposed to a longer delay before the repeat kicks in, theoretically 
it should not be
that hard to get 3 ^]s in 1 second.

Or am I interpreting something incorrectly?

It's been indicated elsewhere that the normal methods of exiting a shell 
session will work
for this too and ^] is more of an emergency exit.
