It is possible to map Ctrl-C, and the infamous mswin.vim script actually
does it. Whether it's a good thing to do is of course a different story,
and indeed I wouldn't recommend it either. Having Ctrl-C as part of an
{lhs} which starts with something else should be less of a problem. See
:help map_CTRL-C

Ctrl-K is one of the rare alphabetic and Ctrl-alphabetic keys not used
in Normal mode, so here there is no conflict. It is however not mappable
in Insert and Command-line mode, where it is used to enter digraphs and
the <> notation of special keys, see :help digraphs-use


Best regards,
Tony.
