Package: gnome-control-center Version: 1:2.22.2.1-2+b1 Severity: normal Enabling "Show position of pointer when Control key is pressed" in gnome-mouse-properties causes gnome-settings-daemon to grab and hold the keyboard. This prevents the user from activating other keyboard- grabbing software, e.g., XTerm's "Secure Keyboard" option. While this doesn't necessarily need to change (it may not be reasonable to implement this in another way), the side effects of this behavior should be documented (and perhaps warn the user when the option is selected?).
