However, there is a solution with some terminal emulators (or if you
have access to it, you could modify the firmware of your terminal).

Eg. with xterm, you could add translations to map X key chords to
ASCII control sequences, and then have emacs interpret these control
sequences.

Have a look at http://stuff.mit.edu/afs/sipb/user/daveg/Info/backtab-howto.txt
