I think this is resolved, kinda.
I just discovered that if I turn off the vbox menu bar, the command
entry line works properly again, both in X-less console mode and in X.
     Settings -> User Interface -> Enable menu bar (disable this)

I've always had that menu bar, and need it, so something got
changed/broken, and I still have a problem, but at least now I don't
have to enter commands in blindly.
