    1616It seems that the auto-capture option isn't a feature but a workaround to being able to disable normal auto-capture behaviour, because it has deficites like not releasing the capture properly when moving the mouse away from the virtual screen.

     18Update 3:
     19I noticed another change in behaviour after working with the auto-capture option disabled.
     20Previously, global hotkeys that are handled by the host system were partially transported to the guest as well, though having released the capture focus via host key prior! This was an annoying unwanted behaviour, cause it seems to affect modifier keys that are transported to the guest, while omitting the corresponding normal key. This resulted in a sticky modifier key in the guest. This happened to me multiple times a day, e. g. when locking my system via WIN+l.

     22I may be wrong, but meanwhile I got the impression that there is one root cause that causes multiple issues: auto-capture being too aggressive.
     23It may be possible therefore, to improve various usability issues with improving the auto-capture feature!
