Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/feschber/lan-mouse/issues/139

A system in the config to mark specific hotkeys (ctrl+shift+f7, ctrl+shift+8, etc.) to not be captured/passed to the current device and always be received in a specified device. (obviously, ctrl+shift would show up on the current device, but then would be released once the hotkey was pressed) This would be useful in certain scenarios like having a custom keybind on your mouse turn on your keyboard & external lighting, managing music on just one device, etc.

Not sure I should create an entirely new feature-request, but in a similar vein I would like a keybind that immediately moves control(led) from current host to other host. Think an idling game on one computer and a browser on the other and you want to 'jump' out of the game without otherwise switching workspace/desktop on the host.

@boomboxnation isn't that what ctrl+shift+alt+super does?

#26 is what you are looking for. @MulverineX the release bind only releases the mouse but it can not be used to toggle between a client. I am planning to add such a toggle bind in the future.
