Just to be pedantic: this only gets rid of the annoying "no bind found"
message, the previous commit fixed MPlayer thinking CTRL and backspace
are the same thing (admittedly for anyone not caring about backspace key
working this one on its own would have fixed it, too).
There is still some strange behaviour going on when using mouse buttons
together with CTRL though. For now I'll just hope nobody cares :-)
