He's asking for key sequences, not just a single key with a modifier.

I don't think it can be done reliably.

You could use "Mod4 m" to start a module that did a keyboard grab
for the next key, but I don't think the module would start quickly
enough.

You could do it with a menu, and a menu hotkey, which would be
fast enough, but would cause something visible to appear.

I guess you could make the menu fully transparent, but thats not
really what the OP was asking for.
