ctrl-right-click interpreted as ctrl-left-click on Mac

Description

A little bit of MouseMode weirdness. In ISOLDE during simulations I have ctrl-right-click-and-drag mapped to tug atoms. In Linux this works fine, but on the Mac (inside or outside of simulations) ctrl-right-click-and-drag instead gives me the same behaviour as ctrl-left-click-and-drag (select atoms).

The reason for this little wrinkle is in the Qt documentation at 
http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qt.html. On the Mac, Ctrl maps to Qt::Key_Meta. 
Qt::Control is apparently the Command key, but that doesn't work for me 
either.

Never mind. Found the real reason in mousemodes.py. Will re-map to a different combination.
