That seems backwards in a way. To make it easy to remember which moves (ie. 
shifts) the pixels and which moves a copy it would be better the other way 
around. The C from Ctrl would make one think of Copy while Shift would be just 
that (shifting but not copying).

Probably too late to change this and would confuse users who are already used 
to it as it is now.
