Ummmm, Andy?  Why *shouldn't* Shells accept BREAKs or ^C?  I can think
of several places where that would be very convenient but none, offhand,
where it would be a problem.  What am I missing?  At least have the shell
accept the BREAK signal.  Surely that is specific enough that it can't
be mixed up with valid commands.
