I use Ctrl-Ins and Shift-Ins on Dvorak for one handed copy paste, but I also don't really find the standard ctrl-c ctrl-v a problem with two hands, I sort of poise my middle finger over "c" and pinkie over "v" with left hand on the ctrl .....feels comfortable to me, but I've been on Dvorak for over 10 years now :)
