Similar but different Ctrl key fight worth mentioning.
On 8.04.1, I configured kbd pair : RU Winkeys + UK International.
(added them and removed first (system's UK (plain)))
If you're asked why I do that in Belgium, reply Ubuntu.
Default is 0 = RU. Layout switcher set to Shift+Alt (like Windows).

Problem with Terminal only (other apps OK with Ctrl):
- When Shift+Alted to RU, Ctrl-anything does nothing.
- When Shift+Alted to UK, Ctrl-char types the sticker's RU character.
That is, Ctrl acts like a layout "push" switch, temporarily.
But that's only in UK mode.
And I have searched in vain for a description of such a feature.

Workaround:
I swapped the two layouts, making them UK,int + RU, Win.
Default is 1 = RU now.
And everything works as expected.

Надеясь, это поможет. Спасибо.

André.
