I would like the approach used in VMWare: When the mouse pointer is within the virtual machine's screen (that is, not only is the window active, it's having the mouse pointer within its zone) all ALT and Ctrl combinaisons (except Alt+Ctrl+Del) are transmitted to the virtual machine.
This is different from what is suggested in that website. The advantage is that Alt+Tab can work in server side as well as in client side --- you just need to move your mouse away from the window. Very convenient. This approach also allow other combos to work like Alt+PrnScrn to capture single foreground window.
It would be nice if VNC could be programmed like that.

The viewer I suggested at <http://www.mazleg.com/vncviewer/> handles this situation by making Alt-Tab work on the remote if the VNC Viewer is the frontmost app, but passing it on to the OS if it isn't. This also adds the ability to use Alt and Control natively (no having to mess around with Ctrl-Down/Ctrl-Up or Alt-Down/Alt-Up menu items).
Ctrl-alt-tab or something like that on the other hand and have it send alt-tab to the remove computer would be great.
You can toggle these features off with the Scroll Lock key, so that if you want it to work the old way, it can. I've asked the author to add the ability to send the Meta key, for Unixes or for the Mac Option key, but I haven't received a response.
