I want to do the same. My approach up to now is to use an input method, see https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26705 But even if this was implemented, using an input method to reuse a modifier will have drawbacks: It is not possible to create events with nonzero status field, and while it is possible to create things like BackSpace, not all applications interpret it correctly. Anyway, for me, it would be good enough. A manipulation possibility as you describe it would be even better. >From what I understand, the X Event Interception Extension once has been a way, but according to the Xorg Wiki, it is dead.
