I've already suggested making standard keybindings for "select all" and "copy" work in Vim (http://vimrcfu.com/snippet/113). CTRL-v would of course be the natural completion of this, because CTRL-a, CTRL-c and CTRL-v are a trio of the most well-known and universal keybindings there are. However, Vim's own trio of v ,V and CTRL-v is just to valuable to disrupt by removing visual block mode---I love visual block mode. However, how about this as a second-best?
