Windows Guest on Windows 7+ loses focus during mouse capture.

Description

Mouse capture on Windows Guest (actually Android x86 also has issues):

If the start menu is hidden and is brought up during mouse movement, causes mouse capture to break free of the window, using the mouse after that causes odd behavior (wrong mouse click, etc).

High mouse acceleration also causes mouse capture to break free.

P/S2 Mouse, USB Tablet, USB Multi-Touch Tablet produce the same results.

To test: Use the Windows 98 SE from Archives.org, mouse will refuse to stay in window after the start menu appears after hidden and will continue to become unusable after the initial break free.
