Is it possible to have M1-M3 act as modifiers instead of individual keys? #20

Is it possible to have M1-M3 act as modifiers instead of individual keys? Like the Windows implementation. Reading various things bout xmodmap sounds like there are 5 modifier keys in addition to standard modifiers (ctrl, shift, etc). Perhaps they could be utilized in some way.

Issue a keypressed event for selected modifier when G1-G6 are pressed so it appears as if M# was pressed and held while pressing G1-G6?

Update: I implemented this over in my branch. I am looking to see if this is a proper approach and what it would take to upstream.
