That's mainly because this isn't something you can change; it's emulated
by the NetBSD kernel.

Well, one of the biggest problems with that is that this actually means
something.  In an xterm, hold down ctrl while you click the mouse 
button...

Hmm.  Doesn't the option/alt key on the left side of the keyboard work? 
(I realize this makes it a two handed operation...)  Generally, though,
the Command key is mapped to the Meta key, which is another useful key for
X apps, which is likely while it was chosen in that manner.  Also, we
don't differentiate the left and right ctrl/opt/cmd keys.

I'm not sure we have a good answer for you. :-(
