I did, actually, some time ago in a rather obscure thread:

    Subject: Re: Shift on console
    Date: Mon, 17 Mar 2008 23:31:05 +0000
    Message-ID: <20080317233104.GA1824@muc.de>

, but it didn't attract any interest.  Until there're keyboards which
distinguish C-S-a from C-a, and infrastructure to support them, there's
not much to be gained by committing it.

I use C-M-S-a to go to the start of the next defun, since I got tired of
typing in M-- C-M-a all the time.
