One of the things that really, really annoys me when I get lazy and use a pre-bundled set of (neo)vim plugins is how every one of them uses mouse functionality. I only use the mouse to copy/paste from the terminal to system clipboard. I don't want it hijacking him and entering visual mode.

does this suggest that copy/paste from the terminal is broken by design and we need find a better way?

Might I suggest a common set of keybinds... maybe C for copy, and v for vaste... maybe use ctrl as well?

Ctrl is already used my a large number of commands in POSIX shells. This is one of the places that I really like Apple's solution (despite really not liking most of what they do). Super/GUI/Command + c/v is a great improvement in the terminal.
