If you make ctor a keyword that doesn't behave like an identifier almost everywhere, I fear you'll just replace 'this' by 'ctor' without much benefit. I can't see a good reason for the constructor function name to be a keyword. Maybe something like opCtor or opConstruct would fit better with the existing special functions though.
