I would put it to you that users of a French/Hebrew keyboard would
disagree with your statement that this is not a problem. In that
combination, Ctrl+ש produces Ctrl-A, while any normal person would
assume (based on the keyboard caption) that it would produce Ctrl+Q.
Let's instead agree that in Windows it's a different problem, which is
not visible to many users.
After playing a lot, the best I could find using setxkbmap, was:
setxkbmap -option grp_led:scroll,grp:alt_shift_toggle,grp:rctrl_switch
- but still, the right CTRL key doesn't do the trick, and there is no
left CTRL to switch to US while key is being pressed..
Any suggestions?

It currently has 500 sheqels. Maybe your contribution will push it
beyond the point where it will have enough incentive for someone to
solve it.
