Re: Stop alt-spacebar window menu

So it looks like it is certainly possible to take alt-spacebar away from
the window manager.  Just now I noticed that VirtualBox's virtual
machine windows do this very thing.  In fact alt-clicking to drag/resize
is eaten by virtualbox as well. So there must be a way to do what you
want.  I suppose the open source VirtualBox source code may shed light
on this.

I should add that this behavior seems to be true on Gnome when the
pointer grab is turned *off*.  In other words I haven't captured the
keyboard and mouse into the virtual machine window yet alt-spacebar,
alt-click, etc, are all not passed to the window manager.
