On OmniOSce/OpenIndiana, character translation in VNC consoles with bhyve can cause many problems for French speakers (myself included).
Here is a remapping file to be placed in /usr/share/bhyve/kbdlayout/ that contains the essential keys.
(For example /usr/share/bhyve/kbdlayout/custom)
Thus, you can remain in AZERTY on your host (without having to switch to QWERTY) and also have the AZERTY layout available in your VMs.

Don't forget "bhyve -K custom" option to specify the remapping.
And, off course, use TigerVNC on windows because of ALTgr (No UltraVNC, Mighty...)
