Terry J. Reedy added the comment:

IDLE's involvement with cut, copy, and paste is to tell the tcl/tk GUI 
framework what keys to associate with the operations. The keys depend on the 
OS-specific defaults or the keyset chosen by the user.  The actual operation on 
the Text widget is carried out by tk, in response to events it gets from the OS.

IME = Input Method Editor.  I just watched ^C and ^V work on Windows with 
Window's Japanese IME.  I properly closed this as an IDLE issue.  Serhiy, do 
you know anything about Windows' built-in Cyrillic IMEs and control key 
combinations?
