Are you actually able to shutdown the application with ctrl + c ? I
didn't expect it to work when I tried it here, and it didn't on Windows
or OpenBSD, so it's difficult to replicate the problem.

Since ctrl + c is the standard copy shortcut that didn't surprise
me...I would have expected to have to do some kind of special keyboard
event handling.

What operating system are you running?
