This unfortunately does not work if the full screen window is the only window. We could extend the Ctrl-Alt-Escape sequence we already use for similar purposes. In addition to what it already does, it would call a "Quarantaine" function that quanrantaines the window under the pointer. Ideally the function would * Remove the window from the desktop, perhaps by iconifying it. The window must be unmapped to ensure it can not cause further damage on the desktop. * Show a reprensentation of all windows in quarantaine and allow the user to end the quarantaine by clicking on the placeholder.
