Cannot translate tab or backspace

Hello!

I'm not sure whether this is expected to work, but it seems that some keys cannot be translated because the intercepted key name and the name used in key bindings is different.

For example, both C-<tab> and C-<backspace> are bound to a command:

(where-is 'tab-next)
;; tab-next is on C-<tab>, C-x t o
(where-is 'backward-kill-word)
;; backward-kill-word is on C-<backspace>, M-DEL

...but the final result after translation appears to be looking up the key mapping with a different name:
, <tab>
Devil: C-TAB is undefined
, <backspace>
Devil: C-DEL is undefined

Is there any way to work around this?
