Control-Tab is handy on a Mac, but the rest of the world has been using

That's alt-tab. (Command-tab on macs).
Indeed it is. My bad.
Ctrl-Tab is used for navigation, and these days only at the application
level, e.g. switching between tabs in a browser, or between worksheets
in a spreadsheet, or between open documents in Visual Studio.
In the older Windows MDI UI it was the the OS-provided shortcut for
moving between sub-windows within the parent window. But thankfully MDI
was retired long ago and nothing anyone needs to think about today.
Since modern use seems to be application-defined, the only conflict we
have is with its current use in LiveCode: as with browsers, the LC
Script Editor supports Ctrl-Tab to switch left-to-right between tabs
(with Ctrl-Shift-Tab to navigate right-to-left between tabs)
