Ah, I'm not sure how all this plays with virtualization. VirtualBox
looks like a full virtualizer with a separate kernel for the guest,
so it probably makes no difference, but if your guest kernel is also
your host kernel and it's container-based virtualization, then pid 1
rules may change completely. I'm not familiar enough with virtualized
systems or containers to know exactly what happens in that case.

Well, your host system will definitely catch the 3 finger salute; it
won't be sent as is to your guest system. Is there a way for the VM to
send an emulated ctrl-alt-del press to the guest ?

That's just a sysctl in your boot scripts.
