Opinion: I feel it would be reasonable to create unified set of modifier keys...
Shift is always a positive thing (add, copy...) , Ctrl is always the
opposite (remove, cut...) and Alt is always the alternative (different
target...)

For example in the move tool shift+click would create a copy of the current
selection and move it. Ctrl-click would just move the current selection (default
action, even without the modifiers) and Alt-shift/ctrl-click would make the
action to affect the current layer instead of the selection.

This should be consistent thrue-out the whole gimp (including plug-ins) and even
thrue-out the whole GNOME...
