Description
They're replaced by cut/copy/paste commands.
Egui is the wrong layer for that - this is clearly an application feature and not a UI library one. I've an application that needs ctrl+x/c for input. With an event chain both events could be included however I would recommend not providing cut/copy/paste events in the first place. Don't know of any UI library handling that on this level.
Esp. applications may remap key binds that may break it. Or give some options to specify the behavior there.

Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by reviewing egui's keyboard event chain and the handling that replaces Ctrl+X, Ctrl+C, and Ctrl+V with commands, then read the discussion to determine whether events should be preserved or behavior made configurable. Done requires an agreed behavior and coverage showing remapped key bindings are not unexpectedly cut out.
