Command Q pass-through

[macmedix]

In Remoter for Mac, the keystroke command q will quit Remoter. This comes as a surprise to me, when I expected to quit the app running on the remotely controlled Mac. So I have to re-launch Remoter, reconnect, and continue by using the menus on the remote Mac to quit the app.

Please consider disabling the command q keystroke from quitting Remoter while a control window is open to a remote computer.
Thanks!

I'd see an easy solution to this, although I'm not sure if it fits your needs too. There is already the menu option to "Send CTRL+ALT+DEL", how about adding "Send CMD+Q"?
Another solution might be to define a shortcut for the CMD key to use it remotely, e.g. make FN+CMD an remote CMD.

I'm now on my way to going berzerk! Because Remoter Mac is the only VNC or remote control software that thinks I want to quit it when I want to quit the remote app. No, I do not want to quit you Remoter, I want to quit that other app that is miles away on the remote machine!

Yes, I'm all too aware of this. And it's been in trac for a while:

I'll try to get this done for next week's beta.

Thanks!,
