SYSRQ accidents

Am I the first one to aim for "k" and accidently hit "l" ? eh? I just
wanted to saK my current TTY, not destroy my system!!! Perhaps sysrq.c
could be made to confirm actions? Or better yet, it could be coded to
become more like the Windows NT Ctrl-Alt-Del screen. (Where you could
have a nice menu, and select stuff from and list and perhaps instead of
just killing all or all but init, you could pick a program/pid to kill.)

I would volunteer to do it myself, but as I am still becoming familiar
with the Linux kernel code, it would take me a while :(.
