[X2Go-User] "Whole screen" mode without capturing the cursor

[Robert Dinse]

      Remmina, an NX client has a 1-pixel pulldown at the top of the screen,
once pulled down there is a graphic of a keyboard, with it clicked down all
keystrokes and mouse go to the remote client, with it up, the hot-keys for
X allow you to switch workspaces, etc.  I would love to see this functionality
in X2Go.
