I feel that this feature has caused some usability issues.

I find it odd that Ctrl-C has been remapped to copy the whole field to the
clipboard. I like the feature, but the default should be a different key
combination.

I encountered this because I was trying to copy an ISBN as part of testing for
bug 21665 and noticed that after selecting the text nothing was happening when
I pressed Ctrl-C, no copying to the new clipboard, no copying to my computer's
clipboard, nothing.

It took me a while to figure out what was going on and how the new shortcut was
supposed to be used, and I imagine a lot of users will encounter similar
difficulties.

I am aware that the shortcut can be remapped, but I feel that using Ctrl-C as
the default is confusing and frustrating, especially when it functions the same
way in basically every other software program.

I propose that for new installations we change the mapping to be Ctrl-E or
something similar.

Thoughts?
