That's not entirely correct. You can configure your terminal
emulator to send a different keycode for ctrl-shift-c/v if your
emulator supports it - and then map that other key in Vim
(obviously works only for terminal Vim).
For example rxvt-unicode supports remapping the input. The
following entry in .Xdefaults remaps Ctrl-Shift-c to esc x (just
an example, you could also use the F* keys or any other unused
key):
URxvt.keysym.Control-0x43: \033x
0x43 is the keycode for upper c. Shift-c or Shift-0x63 (0x63 is
c) doesn't work!
Reload the changes:
$ xrdb -merge ~/.Xdefaults
Then open a new urxvt window and remap the key in Vim:
:map <esc>x ...
This should work for any key combination, use xev to get the
keycode for the desired combination. The rxvt man page has
additional information:
$ man urxvt | less -p ' keysym.sym'
