I believe there is no encoding for Ctrl+, in VT; confirming with a couple other terminal emulators:

In all below instances, I pressed Ctrl+A Ctrl+,

What are you expecting to see?

Oops, sorry, I didn't check in anything else. I guess I assumed something was wrong because Terminal chooses to send ctrl+l here, which seemed odd to me. I have used this keybinding in the past in Emacs, but I guess it was only ever Emacs in a graphical window.
