[Feature]Add a shortcut to split the Wayland virtual machine screen(ubuntu26+vbox7.2.10)

Post by Tianyazi »

On Ubuntu 26.04 (Wayland) with VBox 7.2.10 (Windows 10), screen splitting is not possible, and text content cannot be copied or pasted. However, on Ubuntu 24.04 (X11) with VBox 7.2.10 (Windows 10), screen splitting is available, and bidirectional copying and pasting are supported.

It is recommended to add a send shortcut here to easily resolve the screen split issue.

I have also noticed that Wayland behaves differently from X11 in virtual environments. A dedicated shortcut for managing display actions would be a convenient solution, especially for users testing newer Ubuntu releases where some traditional VirtualBox integrations are not working the same way.
