#4208 new defect
Command-Q not passed to client OS — at Initial Version

Description
Certain key combinations are not being passed through to the client OS.
Usecase: Command-Q (in X11 as Meta-Q) to quit an application in the client OS results in the "Close virtual machine" dialog (and leads to a 'stuck' command key modifier after dismissal, until meta is pressed again).
Also see Command-H for another example of this problem
http://www.virtualbox.org/changeset/1320 describes a fix, but from what I can tell has either not been applied, or does not work.
Partially related to Ticket #1668, but currently the exhibited behaviour is inconsistent with the behaviour of other keyboard combinations (i.e. pass everything to the client) - 1668 describes how passing through these key combos, if _optional_, may still be useful to some.
