Problem with "Windows" shortcuts in Windows host

Reported by: jfb Owned by:
Component: other Version: VirtualBox 4.2.16

Guest type: Windows Host type: all

Description

On Windows host, when we use shortcuts with the Windows Key (key between Ctrl and Alt at the bottom left of the keyboard) such as "Windows + l", the action is executed by Windows but VirtualBox doesn't filter this shortcut and send the key associated with Windows key to the windows having focus in the guest. That can create problems when the focused windows in the guest accepts the key as, for example, Eclipse where edited code is modified.
