Even with the snapshot version, the same mapping problem occurs

Usually, it is after a soft reboot. For example, if I restart from
Windows 98 se to
DOS and then back to Windows 98 se then I get the key mapping where keys
act as hot keys regardless of focus. However, I have experienced a
few times
when the keyboard started off in that mode. The general workaround
seems to
be to do a shutdown of the virtual machine and then restart QEMU.
Could this be a case of stuck modifier keys? Qemu's notion of which
modifier keys are pressed can sometimes get out of sync with the real
state of the keys. E.g. when you press the alt key to alt-tab away
from qemu, it still thinks that the alt key is pressed afterwards,
because it didn't receive the key-up event, not having focus at that
point. This can be corrected by pressing and releasing the stuck
modifier key after you switch back to Qemu.

I have noticed a similar "problem" with the numlock. It doesn't actually
bother me as the solution is very simple, but when I start qemu with the
numlock switched on then in qemu to get numlock on I have to turn it
'off' (ie no led on the keyboard) and vice versa.
Just a comment, about the keyboard state, perhaps in final polishing
this may be considered important, but in actual doing stuff with qemu it
doesn't actually reduce workability.
Cheers
