It can't hurt to add alternatives like the one you suggested. They don't
have to be convenient, although the one you suggest takes 5 fingers at
the same time :)

Is there anything that uses
shift+ctrl+alt + key
in userspace?

I checked enlightenment 17, they have crazy key bindings, but nothing
that uses all 3 modifier keys at the same time.
If that's not safe, feel free to add one or 2 more just to be safe.

Thanks for suggesting this.
