This change is a bit racy when the SpiceDisplay widget has focus and the
user presses caps lock (for example):
- a "key down" message is sent
- a "key modifiers" message is sent
- a "key up" message is sent
When the user presses caps lock again, these messages get sent (in a
different order than previously for some reason):
- a "key down" message is sent
- a "key up" message is sent
- a "key modifiers" message is sent
QEMU-side, in the latter case, this causes these events:
- a "key down" event is sent to the guest
- a "key up" event is sent to the guest
- the led state is still the old one, so spice-server tries to change
it. It does it by sending fake key presses, which means it synthetizes
a "key down"/"key up" pair and send that to the guest
All this means the caps lock state changes from On to Off, and then
again from Off to On. When the client is notified that the guest caps
lock led is On, it sends once more a "key modifiers" message, which will
send one more "key down"/"key up" event pair to the guest, finally
setting the led to the expected state.
In the end, the state is the one we would expect, but 3 caps lock
presses could be observed on the guest while the user only pressed it
once.
Arguably, this is not a bug as in the end everything is fine, but we
might want to limit the automatic synchronization to cases when the
widget does not have focus, or even revert this patch and only sync
when the widget gets focused.
