Use Ctrl-d!
Due to recent events, we now broadcast a public service announcement:
Stop typing "exit" or "logout" to quit your current shell session!
Thank you for your attention - we now return to our regular programming.

I usually set IGNOREEOF in bash to 1, so I have to press ^D twice to quit. Sometimes, after pressing it for the first time, I realize there's something important in the session I need to copy somewhere else.
Also, in xsh (http://p3rl.org/XML::XSH2), using `exit` saves your history, while exiting via ^D doesn't.
Watching people type exit drives me crazy slowly. Also watching people backspace over a whole cmd line in order to change vw to vi.
Watching people type who can't type drives me crazy.
Reminds me of the NetApp CLI (OnTap)... which forces ctrl-D
