Just wanted to note that, as of now, the keyboard shortcuts are:

https://github.com/bk138/droidVNC-NG/blob/2542f9a89884dbba2344b00c597e722ae9fa85ac/app/src/main/res/values/strings.xml

From a VNC viewer, Ctrl-Shift-Esc triggers 'Recent Apps' overview, Home/Pos1 acts as Home button, Escape acts as Back button.

However, on Windows 10, Ctrl-Shift-Esc actually starts Task manager. However, there is a workaround for TightVNC Viewer on Windows - there are actually GUI buttons in the top row, among them, Ctrl and Alt:

Just click on the Ctrl GUI button to toggle it, then you can [ress just Shift-Esc on keyboard, and this will arrive as Ctrl-Shift-Esc in droidVNC-NG server, trigerring Recent Apps - while not triggering the Windows Task Manager.

Allowing setting custom key combination would be good. 👍

Allow user to modify to suit their needs

may i suggest to use the same (default) shortcuts as scrcpy does, especially if there are more to come, as they seem pretty reasonable. ...and perhaps some are already used to them, like i am. 😜

yes, i have to admit HOME/POS1 as home button seems also reasonable, but ESC for just going back (and not aborting/ending/closing something) seems still somewhat odd to me. not to mention, that a right click via mouse is much more convenient for such a frequently used operation.
