I considered this, but an xterm without a window manager is probably just as baffling. And no, we don't want a backgrounded xterm, since pulse audio will barf and will still kill the login session, no?
I'd be fine with "Here's an xterm to fix your files. When you exit, you will be logged out, then you can try again.
Really, the right answer here is a panel applet that monitors quota and says "Hi, you just did something that put you at 99.5% or more of quota usage. You probably want to fix it, like, now, before you're unable to log in in the future."
