    I note that one can specify both the unshifed and
    shifted codes for various keys with xmodmap.  It would seem natural to be
    able to specify the control translation also.

Perhaps, but it can't be done with xmodmap.  The shift vs unshifted
distinction can involve looking at different elements of the keysym
matrix associated with the keyboard (the one that xmodmap frobs), but
the meaning of control has no interaction with this matrix.
