Jordan: That's an interesting approach and I think it makes sense, but only if one accepts that rebinding to such sequences is a good idea.
I don't, however, I do have a standing policy of trying not to deviate too far from GNOME Terminal behaviours since many of our users will be used to that.

Given that we're not changing the defaults anywhere, and this patch wouldn't add any options that would mean documentation encouraging users to do silly things, I think it should be ok to apply. I slightly worry that it might confuse people when a key they chose to mean Copy also starts to kill things, but I struggle to imagine of anyone who willingly gives up the true meaning of Ctrl-C!

Applied to trunk in revision 705. Thanks!
