Sorry to say it does not.  As before, Ctrl+Left and Ctrl+Right just 
produce "[ Unknown Command ]" on the status line.

Of that little group of ten keys, only Insert, Delete, PageUp, and 
PageDown keep on doing what they normally do when used together 
with Ctrl or Alt.  Home and End, Up and Down, and Left and Right 
together with Ctrl or Alt produce "[ Unknown Command ]".  That seems 
like an asymmetry.  Is that intended?
