Bug ID: 48512
           Summary: alt-tab difference between windows and wine
           Product: Wine
           Version: 5.0
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
          Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org

      Distribution: ---
There are many bug reports about alt-tab, but they are all referencing a
specific application.
I'm reporting this as a general issue with all applications, it will probably
fix many of the other problems from other bug reports.
In Windows, when you alt-tab away from an application, it immediately sends the
event for the alt key being lifted up to the application that is losing focus.
So the application does not think that the alt key is being held down.
In Wine, when you alt-tab away from an application, the application still
thinks that the alt key is being held down.
These are just a few of the many reports that I suspect might be solved by
fixing this:

My observation is with both Final Fantasy XI and World of Warcraft, but there
are many, many other reports of similar problems with alt-tab in other games.
