Wasn't it because people wanted to use Control-C to cancel?
I don't know if that ever worked either...

Nope, there's no bindings for Control-c at all. I always planned to use 
Escape for that sort of thing, because the idea that Control-C means Copy 
in a GUI is pretty widespread.

I can only assume that we had some cygnus local bindings or something. 
Maybe it never worked? Anyway, it works now! :-)
