I found a small difference between your Cog builds for Windows and the 
official Windows VM. On the official VM alt+leftClick generates 
wheel/centerButton click. This is not done by your Windows VMs, maybe 
because of some Teleplace change. You might want to add this back, it is 
quite useful on machines with just 2 mouse buttons (like many notebooks).
