Felix, if you want to discuss the default behaviour, please get in touch with the author of the patch, since he might not read this bug tracker here. Anyway, the patch has been released with QEMU 6.1, so I'm closing this ticket here now.

The arrow keys jump over a line, as if you had typed the key twice. PgUp and PgDn are likewise affected. Other applications are not affected, unless you shell out from Vim. The QEMU version is 5.0.0, and I'm using the "-k sv" option, but I've tried without it and it doesn't make a difference. I don't get this keyboard behaviour in the exact same VM under VMware Player or Bochs. -Albert.
