Package: gnome-boxes
Version: 3.25.91-1
Severity: serious

[I don't know whether this bug lies in gnome-boxes or gnome-shell or
some combination of both. Release-critical because this completely
breaks the ability to log into many Windows VMs with gnome-boxes under
the default GNOME Wayland session.]

The mechanism gnome-boxes uses to grab the keyboard doesn't work under
the default GNOME Wayland session. This makes it impossible to send
Ctrl-Alt-Delete; it always goes to gnome-shell instead.

(It might also help to add Ctrl-Alt-Delete to the list of shortcuts
provided in the gnome-boxes keyboard menu, alongside Ctrl-Alt-Backspace
and similar.)

This seems to work under GNOME 3.28 (probably also 3.26). I'm prompted
while starting up the VM for whether to allow gnome-boxes to grab the
keyboard. I haven't tried a Windows VM, but if I use the keyboard menu to
switch to a text-mode VT for a Linux VM with Ctrl+Alt+F$n, then either
press Ctrl+Alt+Del or send it via the keyboard menu, the VM reboots
as expected.
