There's a short example on the OpenLayers docs that sounds similar.
<a
href="http://dev.openlayers.org/docs/files/OpenLayers/Control-js.html">http://dev.openlayers.org/docs/files/OpenLayers/Control-js.html</a><br>
It doesn't use the map.events.register though. <br>
It shows how to use OpenLayers.Util.extend to create a control that
will work when the user is holding down the Shift key. It intercepts
the shift-mouse click, lets the user drag out a box, and then does
something with the bounds of that box. <br>
It uses the OpenLayers.Handler.MOD_SHIFT keymask. There is also a
MOD_CTRL keymask you could use as well. <br>

<br>
I use the MOD_SHIFT keymask to let users drag out a box over a map
and it works fine. <br>

I have written a small application to input points with
<ctrl><click> from an OpenLayers map using
"map.events.register("click",map,function(e) { ...}". Works
fine, but when the user moves the mouse when clicking, the
default behavior takes over: the map is panned and no input
takes place. How can I disable panning when the <ctrl> key
is down?<br>
