 I ended up rebooting. I don't know if pressing Ctrl+C in a terminal I 
 haven't logged in into should trigger this, but I played with my 
 keyboard after changing the setting (including pressing Ctrl+C), and 
 eventually even that shortcut stopped working, as well as Ctrl+Alt+Fx. 
 Ctrl+Alt+Del ended up being my savior.

 I see. Good thing I usually use Win+Space to switch between 
 keymaps/input methods. Maybe it would make sense for console-setup in 
 Debian to default to grp:win_space_toggle as well? 
  
 Cheers, and thank you for your help!
