yeah, this is where it gets messy and you have to start remapping things.

the same can be said of keys that are always special to the host PC of course, combinations like ctrl-alt-delete which will pull you right back to the host desktop etc. you have literally no choice but to remap the keys to something that won't trigger the host.
