I've just tried this. It captures the keyboard ok, no other windows get
any keyboard input until you quit the app, but it doesn't stop the
alt-spacebar thing. I don't think it can be done. I've just tried emacs,
which is the application that captures all known keystrokes, and a few
more you didn't know about, but it doesn't stop that one. The win32
version does.
Thanks for the help - Bill

Well, you have a couple choices:
Actually there is a third option. You can grab the focus like VMWare or
DosEMU does and prevent any keystrokes from going to the WM. Of course
you'll have to provide a way to release the grab.
I believe the API is in GdkDisplay area[1]. Look for calls involving
keyboard_grab.
