[request] Make 'C-movement' behave the same as 'C-hjkl'

[moesasji]

For non-qwerty layouts such as colemak hjkl are not on the homerow, making navigating more painful. Instead of remapping keys I solve that by having an additional keyboard layer that puts the movement keys (LEFT, DOWN, UP, RIGHT) at the qwerty position using an additional modifier key.

This works fine for hkjl movement commands as these are bound to hjkl. However for movement commands that involve CTRL this doesn't always work as expected as for example 'C-down' is not bound to 'C-j', etc. Would it be possible to also bind the CTRL-versions of the movement commands to emit C-hjkl, so that these commands can also be generated using movement commands as would be expected?

For an example where going up and down with movement commands doesn't work, see the pasting transient state.
