Did I get that wrong or are you really suggesting to make Ctrl unavailable
as a modifier inside of Squeak?

Many "normal" applications map Ctrl combinations. Most do so before they
begin to map Alt. At least on Windows and Linux. Ctrl to them is what Cmd
is to Mac, that's how I observed it.

I wish that both modifiers are available for the Squeak IDE and
applications. That they are blurred as they are now and can't be reliably
used together is a long-standing bug in my opinion. It severely limits the
space of reliably-available shortcut key combinations.
