I use Synergy, and the bug occurs with it as well. It adds a layer of confusion 
when it happens, but that's about it. (I use a hardware KVM switching two 
videocards to the same monitor, but the mouse isn't connected to it.) At least 
with the Synergy version I have, the UI locks up under windows, but it keeps 
functioning. The bug also happens without it running.

Spent some time attempting to force the bug this weekend, but didn't manage to. 
 I'll try again to get some logging soon.
