~sircmpwn/aerc2#432: 
Unable to use special keys in ctrl+ combinations

Similar issues: #401

When in binds.conf, attempting to assign a keybinding using Ctrl and a "special key" fails with the message Unknown key 'C-Left' (or similar).

The expected behavior would be for these commands to function similar to Vim's remap features - ex. <C-Left> or <S-Tab> (although the latter is covered by <BackTab>) would be parsed as Ctrl + Left and Shift + Tab.

man aerc-config does not mention supporting <C-Left> or similar, so I suspect this is more of a feature request than a bug...

version: aerc 0.4.0
