Public bug reported:

Many compact keyboards lack either an RWIN- or an RCTL key. Personally,
I use RCTL a lot more than RWIN, although I would not like to go without
a win/log key altogether. The file /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/altwin has
lots of options to mess with modifier keys, but not the option to change
RWIN into R-Control but leave Lwin alone.
