It all depends on how you want the remapping to behave. Do you want
this remapping only within Emacs? Do you want it to apply to things
like C-{ and M-}? How about C-x { ?
I personally prefer to do those kinds of "inconvenient keyboard" things
globally by choosing another keyboard layout (e.g. with
gnome-keyboard-properties).
