Nick Couchman updated GUACAMOLE-2188:
-------------------------------------
Description:
Guacamole's SSH and Telnet terminal emulators do not properly handle modifier
key combination {{{}Shift+Tab (Backtab){}}}. Currently, this combination sends
the same escape sequences as its unmodified counterparts (Tab sends 0x09,
Shift+Tab also sends 0x09), preventing users from using CLI tools that rely on
these keyboard shortcuts.
{{Shift+Tab}} should send the escape sequence {{ESC[Z}} (0x1B 0x5B 0x5A) per
standard terminal emulation behavior, as confirmed by testing against AWS SSM
web console and standard Linux terminals.
This impacts user experience when working with interactive CLI tools like:
* kubectl/k9s navigation ({{{}Shift+Tab{}}} to move backward through fields)
* tmux/screen commands
* Claude Code switching between Plan mode and Edit mode
* Terminal-based editors and TUIs that use Shift+key combinations
