We've gotten a report that the log fills up with this when the screen saver is active on HP ThinPro terminals:

Not sure why this happens as there is no explicit loop for the grabbing. Perhaps we're ping-ponging the focus between vncviewer and the screen saver.

Doesn't seem to happen on HP t610 with ThinPro 5, ThinLinc 4.2.0 client.
