           Summary: TeamViewer: Insufficient SendInput() implementation
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.1.34
          Platform: x86
               URL: http://www.teamviewer.com
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: caliga at arcor.de


TeamViewer (and probably similar software) uses SendInput() to execute keyboard
and mouse commands remotely.

When doing a remote support session to a TeamViewer running on Wine, you get
the following behaviour:
- Mouse movement: works fine
- Mouse clicks: work on Wine windows only
- Keyboard:
  -- doesn't work at all if configured to Win2000/XP
  -- works on Wine windows if configured to WinNT

Note: to reproduce this bug, you have to workarround Bug #12067.
Also, (depending on your system?) TeamViewer may consume allmost all CPU time,
due to bug #21055.

I'm wondering if this bug will be considered valid. It may seem strange to let
a Win app send input to the X desktop. However, I'd say it is necessary for a
seamless integration.

At least the "Keyboard doesn't work at all" part should be fixed.
