The guest additions in the 4.15 kernel work fine, so my first thought was to disable both vboxadd.service and vboxadd-service.service, but then what do I do for LTS?

And that indeed is the answer (from the #vbox IRC tonight). If you run a Arch guest with 4.15+, you can just disable the systemd vboxadd and vboxadd-service services (or install the vbox guest additions altogether) and auto capture/release of the mouse, X, etc.. continues to work fine. I'd add this to the wiki, but it would just be removed... -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
