Public bug reported: I am running Xubuntu 11.10 under VirtualBox 4.1.8 r75467 on a Mac (running OSX 10.6 Snow Leoopard).
Whenever I click into my Xubuntu display (either in windowed or in seamless mode), what seems to happen is that the display receives an erroneous click event that is somewhat offset from the virtual screen's mouse position, and then as soon as the VM window is focused, it gets a mouse motion indicating the correct position. The end result is that whenever I click into Xubuntu I end up either selecting a lot of items on my desktop, or select a lot of text in the window I clicked into. This does not happen on my Debian VM, so I think that rules out involvement from virtualbox itself. I have not determined whether it occurs on other Ubuntu desktops or in window managers other than xfwm.
