No, the fullscreeen doesn't grad the keys like <alt>+<tab> inside the 
session, at least not for me (linux client). According to NoMachine 
documentation, this should be default to <ctrl>+<alt>+<k>, but that 
doesn't do anything (for me) in a X2Go session.

I have updated the wiki-page with descriptions for those actions.
One day when I have lots of free time (yay!), I'll try to look over the 
code to verify my descriptions and find out how to enable the 
key-grabbing in X2Go (if possible).
