4. I think I did not communicate this well in my original email. I'm not referring to the "magic pixel" to minimize the X2Go session. What we find happening VERY frequently is that a user has an application maximized in their X2Go desktop. They then want to close the application and do so by clicking on the top right most "x" box on the title bar, i.e., the shortcut to close (alongside restore and minimize). They click the top right most one because that's the habit they have built for closing maximized applications and briefly forget that the top rightmost "x" is not the one for the application but the one for the X2Go session. Thus, they accidentally close their X2Go session rather than the application. If they were working in full screen mode, the X2Go desktop would be more like their physical desktop rather than a desktop within a desktop and thus their habitual actions are less like to be a problem. It also gives <ALT><TAB> and eliminates the confusion we frequently hear among end users as they say "now where am I - my virtual world or my physical world".

Thanks again - John

I have some requests for both types of use cases, fullscreen and a combination of virtual/physical. So some way to configure for choice would be great.
