     I want to remap <Ctrl>-; and <Ctrl>-' to emit something other than a ;
     or ' in a non-X program running in an xterm window. Is this
     unreasonable?

Nope, not at all.  Try this:

% xterm -xrm '*VT100.translations:#override Ctrl<Key>semicolon:string(" hi") \n\
Ctrl<Key>quoteright:string(" there")'
