Because in other apps I can use these key combinations. E.g. C-s-f in
Chrome toggles fullscreen mode. But in Emacs, such keybindings don't work.
E.g. after evaluating (global-set-key (kbd "C-s-f") (lambda ()
(interactive) (message "It works"))) hitting C-s-f will lead to the error
message "<C-s-268632070> is undefined", and M-x lossage will contain "
<C-s-268632070> [nil]".

This works as expected (i.e. I get whatever is bound to s-a, and s-a
appears in lossage). It's only the combination of C-s and M-s that gets
translated incorrectly.
