In emacs:
C-x k runs `kill-buffer'
a common occurance.
C-x C-k runs `edit-kbd-macro'
I've often wound up running the second one my mistake because I type
fast. I could easily see not pulling the finger off the X key fast
enough.
So, no key combination really works for everyone, so having a nice way
to change it would be great. Or convince distros that DontZAP is the
way to go.
