It's already configurable.

Well, the advantage of using modifiers key for
grab-sequence is that the side of effect is limited.
In general ctrl+alt alone won't do anything on its own
(that's why I think it was a good candidate)

However, it still is better to send those modifiers
to the guest, even if they match the grab sequence.

I am afraid we have too many cases with server mouse mode,
(for some reasons people don't use usb-tablet or the agent
is malfunctioning, for example, on windows) so this it not
an option.
