I found a picture of the space-cadet keyboard on the web:

http://screenshots.sourceforge.net/misc/SpaceCadet1.jpg

The web page says that this was used with LMI machines as well. It has
Shift, Ctrl, Meta, Super, Hyper, Greek and Top. The X keyboard model
is definitely not enough to support this keyboard. 

But anyway, since there is no specific name for mod5 there is no way
to use five distinct modifiers (in addition to Shift and Ctlr) with
Emacs, is there? 

With universal UTF-8 support just around the corner, people might 
want to put real alphas etc in their Tex/Nroff documents. Thus a 
Greek modifier is needed :-)
