Modifier keys Mac-to-Mac

Of course, even if you are using a keyboard with this key (i.e. you are
viewing a Mac from a Mac), then it will still most likely not be sent
from viewer to server (there's an option in the AT&T viewer to send it,
I believe...)

You still have to use ctrl+opt(/alt) to emulate the command key when
viewing a Mac on a Mac - even when clicking!

I think it might just be worth me going on record (for the sake of any
who are involved in development of any Mac VNC client) as saying that
I do think it may well be worthwhile actually allowing the command key
to be recognised and sent to a server when a mouse down event is sent
(and until a mouse up event).

This would allow normal use of command as a mouse modifier without
interfering with its use for menu commands...

Any chance of this going into VNCThing 1.3??
