Not yet, but I think I see the problem and how to resolve it.

The problem is that Ctrl-Command on Mac is defined for VMware itself, so
never gets passed to the guest OS in the vm.

If I recall, command+right-arrow is cycle through Windows, as in next vm
window.

So, I'm now looking at VMware / Preferences / Keyboard & Mouse and the
Default Profile to see where the most global replacement might be.

I'm looking to replace with something like Shift+Ctrl+Command, and I
hope this doesn't have to be done one at a time for all the default
mappings.
