If upstream means VirtualBox upstream, I wonder whether this is still an issue with VirtualBox 5.1.

[Bug 536832] Re: Setting compose key as 'right CTRL' traps cursor in VirtualBox
If Right Ctrl is defined as the (standard) Compose key, VirtualBox must not default to Right Ctrl as Host Key (anymore), which it will never recognize as such then, yet this trap persists through Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS. When caught in a VM window, few users will find the "emergency exit" back to Unity of killing the host process from a Ctrl-Alt-F1 console (text/character mode) shell. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/536832 Title: Setting compose key as 'right CTRL' traps cursor in VirtualBox To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-lts-xenial/+bug/536832/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 536832] Re: Setting compose key as 'right CTRL' traps cursor in VirtualBox
Thank you for posting this bug. I think this is more of a wishlist looking for "dummy proofing" the compose key being set to the same key as VirtualBox's release key. Something like, if the compose key is set to the same key as release key or vice versa, one gets a prompt noting this will have dire consequences. Or, if one does this (accidently or purposely) one always has preference over the other. As well, you should post an enhancement request with VirtualBox bug tracker see what upstream thinks. Frankly, I would like to see something like this hashed out. ** Changed in: virtualbox-ose (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- Setting compose key as 'right CTRL' traps cursor in VirtualBox https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/536832 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Also, it is the host OS that is configured to use right CTRL as the compose key and not the guest OS. -- Setting compose key as 'right CTRL' traps cursor in VirtualBox https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/536832 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 536832] Re: Setting compose key as 'right CTRL' traps cursor in VirtualBox
Hi Andreas, Maybe it is not technically possible with the current way the compose key is implemented but I was expecting virtualbox to release the cursor from the virtual machine when pressing right CTRL. I would not expect that setting this key as the compose key would block other applications from detecting that the key had been pressed. -- Setting compose key as 'right CTRL' traps cursor in VirtualBox https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/536832 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

To be clear, when my compose key is something other than right CTRL then VirtualBox correctly releases the mouse when hitting right CTRL. -- Setting compose key as 'right CTRL' traps cursor in VirtualBox https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/536832 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
