Bug Description

When using a non-US keyboard language through vnc and websockets, Alt-Gr keyboard combinations do not work.
According to https://github.com/kanaka/noVNC/issues/406, this is a QEMU issue.

Tested with Qemu 2.2.1

Alt-gr seems to be pressed in VM, but when pressing for example AltGr + e, then the altgr-button is released just before e is pressed. When e is released, altgr is pressed again.

When doing some more digging, it doesn't seem to be a QEMU issue as the client releases altgr when pressing a key-combination.
