You can also 'ssh -e <char> ...' to remap the ssh escape, but...

The console escape should just be easily configurable to whatever the
xen box admin wants; then it could easily be made to work conveniently
despite any conflicting or problematic keyboard/ssh/remote access
hardware/application software/etc key binding issues.

We can remap the xen/dom0 switch key with the
conswitch=<switch-char><auto-switch-char> boot option; the console
escape should be configurable too.
