It's quite common for people to press CTRL-C to discard the current command
line. This is harmless actually for most times except when people include
$? in $PS1. I also show $? in red color when it's not 0 so it's more
noticeable. So is it OK to not change $? when people are pressing CTRL-C to
discard the input?
