Kitty manages to represent a lot of key combinations in its
[comprehensive key protocol][1]. Someone™ could implement that in
fbterm, too.

(The current iteration of the comprehensive key protocol is a lot
easier to work with in Emacs than the previous one, too. This one does
not require one to filter out key release events.)
