2014-02-10 00:21:41 Lee Hyde description I often use onboard from a distance, triggering it via compiz's hotcorners feature. On those occassions when I've accidentally closed onboard with one or more modifiers (e.g. Ctrl + Alt) locked, I am left with few means on interacting with my system (as with Ctrl + Alt locked, all of my keyboard shortcuts and hotcorners won't work). I can't even reopen onboard to unlock the modifiers in questions. I would suggest that as a matter of good practice, when onboard is closed, it should automatically release all locks.
