Summary: Left Handed Mouse

Initial Comment:
when the mouse buttons are switched (for left handed use) on the client machine, and switched on the host (windows) machine as well, its the wrong way round.

You can workaround by switching the buttons back to normal - in windows. Except then you log in from a windows machine instead, and you have the problem again.

Confirming that on Windows, button swap settings don't apply to mstsc;
perhaps mstsc somehow gets the buttons before they're swapped, on a lower
level.

Guys, what's the technology responsible for swapping mouse buttons on
modern X.org? XKB, xmodmap?
