[~vnick] Understood the priorities are different. 
I will be very glad when a packaged guacamole 1.2.0 built against package freerdp 2.0 release. 
Please realize from an end user usability point of view, in my opinion, I would tag it critical.
I realize that is one user opinion.

 Really the intercept is needed outside of full screen mode too but the first step is replicating a fix of any sort even if I have to compile a custom browser to do that.

[~Toff] I've dusted off a Chromium browser just to attempt to use your FullScreenGrabKeyboard.user.js.
 I'm sick of losing sessions every time I delete a word when using Firefox.
 Normally I would use something like Tampermonkey for Firefox to use that. What is an equivalent for Chromium? i.e. How are you installing that FullScreenGrabKeyboard.user.js into guacamole 1.1?

How are you installing that FullScreenGrabKeyboard.user.js into guacamole 1.1 or are you not touching it and using something similar to Tampermonkey for Chromium, if so what addins works please?

> When accessing guacamole in a browser it would be great to have full RDP-like keyboard key and shortcut access. It is very easy to perform actions by special shortcuts (ie, Windows+Key, Alt+Tab) local PC instead of the intended remote PC as well as CTRL key shortcuts on the local browser instead of the remote browser. Another problem is closing the guacamole tab by accident via Ctrl+F4 (I've done this several times!). Some similar issues were voiced in GUACAMOLE-121 regarding CTRL+W.
> Please add support for Chromium's system keyboard lock API which allows a rich keyboard experience in full screen mode (you hold ESC for 2 seconds to exit). This would allow using special keys and shortcuts that we use habitually, and habits are hard to break. So why break them? Instead add keyboard lock functionality.
