Bug Description

Binary package hint: rdesktop

In Ubutnu 9.04, rdesktop-1.6.0-2ubuntu1 will continue to override window manager key bindings when in focus regardless of the -K option. This has been an issue in previous versions of ubuntu as well.

The intended behavior with -K set when running rdesktop is such that window manager key bindings (like ctrl+alt+right to move to the workspace on the right) should first be passed to the window manager and then sent to rdesktop if there is no binding. Without this, the user has to click away to shift focus off rdesktop and then window manager keybindings will work.
