Ctrl-Enter as a navigation key on wxMSW

I've noticed that if a multi-line text ctrl is in a window hierarchy 
without any wxTAB_TRAVERSAL styled parents then Ctrl-Enter will insert 
newlines, but if a parent has wxTAB_TRAVERSAL then Ctrl-Enter is used as 
a navigation key and acts basically like Tab.  This becomes a problem in 
situations like wxGrid where the Enter key is used for other things, as 
then there is no way to insert a newline in the textctrl.  Is there a 
way, or does it make sense to add one, to prevent Ctrl-Enter from being 
used for navigation?  (Besides not using wxTAB_TRAVERSAL)
