It is a bit difficult to describe.

For example, I'm using a Windows "server" and a macOS "client", when I'm using Chrome on client and I want to move input focus to the address bar, I press Win+L which should translate to Cmd+L on macOS, it does work, but it will also trigger Win+L on Windows which will lock it, which is unintended behavior.

I believe this is a bit hard to implement, maybe we'll need a mouse filter driver?
