It's almost always the wrong thing to use, especially for a typical
comint process [*], so having a handy binding by default seems like
asking for trouble.

[*] (1) It send SIGKILL, which is a last-ditch emergency measure, not
        the way you should ordinarily stop a process
    (2) Because it sends a _signal_, rather than using pty, it will kill
        the sub-shell rather than the foreground process, in the case of
        a shell session (not to mention a telnet session etc).
