Public bug reported:

In Ubuntu 20.04, I was able to set Left Ctrl as my Compose key using
gnome-tweaks. I just upgraded to 22.04, where the Compose key settings
have been removed from gnome-tweaks and moved into control-center, but
Left Ctrl is not in the list of options for Compose.

I was able to restore Left Ctrl as my Compose key using:

$ gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.input-sources xkb-options ...

adding 'compose:lctrl' to that list, but it would be nice to expose it
in the GUI.

For context, my modifier settings are:

* Caps Lock is Ctrl ('ctrl:nocaps')
* Left Ctrl is Compose ('compose:lctrl')
* Both Shift keys enable/disable Caps Lock ('shift:both_capslock')

which gives me both a Ctrl key on both sides of the keyboard and an
easily-accessible Compose key.
