Your humble opinion is wrong.
Under windows Ctrl-C raises KeyboardInterrupt just as it does under
linux. Ctrl-break by default terminates the program (without invoking
Python's usual cleanup), but you can override that behaviour by
registering a different signal handler.
e.g.
import signal
signal.signal(signal.SIGBREAK,
signal.default_int_handler)
will make Ctrl-break raise KeyboardInterrupt just like Ctrl-C.
