For me both `<ctrl_L> F10` and `<ctrl_R> F10` register in the keybinding dialog 
as `<primary> F10` and both work.  The decoding and naming of keys is buried in 
the depths of GTK or GDK or the Xserver or the Wayland server or .. well you 
get the picture :-) so Geany has no choice if something decides the controls 
are not separable.

Geany just calls a GTK function to convert keypresses to the text name that 
shows in the keybinding dialog, we have no control over it.  (As an aside this 
causes issues with the `<ctrl>CXV` keys when in Cyrillic, Geany gets a Cyrillic 
character and has no way of knowing its a `C` or `X` or `V` key making copy, 
cut, paste impossible in Cyrillic unless the user rebinds the keys).

One thing to be aware of is that `<ctrl> F10` and some other key combos are 
snaffled by some desktops for things like maximise/minimise, and the desktop 
overrides Geany.
