Maybe Stefan can provide an image that you can try?

> By the way, Stefan put the finger on one point : in /usr/sbin/x2gothinclientd, I commented the whole randr stuff block (from line 114 to line 175) to make a try then restarted the x2gothinclient-displaymanager but while it didn't fix my multimonitor support within the X2Go session, it fixed a bad ordering of the monitors.

AFAIU wrong ordering is the raeson for that code. You can instruct it
how to arrange the monitors via that code ("above", "leftof" a.s.o.)

Hmm, this keystroke is supposed to toggle fullscreen. And it is
working in the TCE image I have here (switches to windowed mode and
back again to fullscreen on the second stroke). You could also try
Ctrl+Shift+Alt+F but I doubt it will work if the other keystroke did
not work...
