In GIMP it usually works to press the modifiers after the mouse-down.

This is one of the few good reasons for me to upgrade to a keyboard with
more modifiers -- so I can use one of the new ones to replace conflicting
key commands.  XFWM (XFCE?) had ctrl+FX = move to workspace X.  Which is
fine, except ctrl-F4 traditionally means "close subwindow/tab".  So that one
got unmapped.
