Meaning overflow conditions may not be handled gracefully, dropping bytes randomly,
so the DOS driver may need some synchronization code itself.

so not much of value is lost.
The 4-byte packets is what breaks most other drivers, but when using vbmouse.exe+vbmouse.drv,
this shouldn't be a problem either.

We probably need to hook Ctrl+Alt+Del and turn off the mouse.
+* DOS has functions to start (FindFirst) and continue (FindNext) a directory
+ entry iteration, but no function to stop or cancel one (i.e., FindClose).
+ So we don't know when the program is done with the directory enumeration,
+ and thus we don't know when to close the directory handle (and file descriptor).
+ There are a number of heuristics, e.g. we close the directory when we iterate
+ over the last file. But it is not enough; for example, whenever a DOS client
+ calls FindFirst but doesn't enumerate the directory until the end, we'll leak
+ the file descriptor. Some programs do this in order to check if the directory
+ is not empty. Eventually you'll reach a "Too many open files" error.
+ Closing the DOS program should remove all leaked handles.

* VMware shared folders support is interesting, but there is very little
documentation that I can find, no sample code, and no open source implementation.
