Talking about security and ttys and login:
I would like Devuan to have a clear documentation and good defaults
for the Secure Attention Key (SAK).
E.g. that any user at the console can expect to do Ctrl-Alt-SysRq-K
to work.
Wasn't there a whole seqence of ctrl-alt-letter things to gradually
shut down the entire system, layer by layer? Antybody still know
these, and are they still there?
It's in the kernel, not the distro.
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/sysrq.txt
or google "alt sysreq"
Too few people know that this even exists in Linux.
Too true. I have the magic list written on sticky, underneath my
keyboard - for those eventualities where things go really South on one
of our servers.
