Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: rdesktop
On a fully up to date Hardy Beta as of 04-Apr-2008, we are using
WordPerfect in an rdesktop session to W2k3 Std R2 SP2 terminal server.
When clicking in a document, on occasion, the text will be highlighted
in the manner it would be had the Shift key been depressed when
clicking. This annoys users very much. We have not observed any
predictable cause for invoking this behavior.
Also, in WordPerfect a Ctrl-Shift-V is supposed to paste text without
their font/attribute information (i.e. as plain text), but this
keystroke combination is not always received/honored from an rdesktop
session. Again, it does work sometimes and not others, and so far we
have not observed any predictable cause for invoking this behavior.
Sometimes, instead of click-drag highlighting a block of text from left-
to-right but doing so from right-to-left will make it work, but not
always. This did not occur in Gutsy.

rdesktop causes sticky Shift sometimes, Ctrl-Shift is fickle
