------------------------------------------

             Summary: On-Screen Keyboard: Make Meta behave like other modifier keys, like Shift
                 Key: GUACAMOLE-2225
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GUACAMOLE-2225
             Project: Guacamole
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: guacamole-common-js
    Affects Versions: 1.6.1
         Environment: macOS
            Reporter: Bradley Bennett


The On-Screen Keyboard should treat *Meta* like Shift, Ctrl, and Alt: it should latch when pressed and remain active until pressed again.

 
Currently Meta only works as a momentary key, which makes Meta-based shortcuts difficult to use on touch devices. Users can’t reliably hold Meta while pressing another key.

Meta should toggle on when pressed, stay active for multiple key presses, and toggle off when Meta is pressed again. This keeps behavior consistent with other modifier keys and improves usability for touch and accessibility users.
