Summary says it all, when using the "Preview" tab in either Kdevelop or Kate, I'm unable to use CTRL+C and CTRL+V but also unable to disassociate these shortcuts. I think its a better tradeoff if the webview declares no shortcuts at all (or with blank defaults) and giving priority to right-mouse clicks for those that need to copy the HTML.

Same issue.
I can confirm this. But perhaps this can be fixed by restricting the scope of the shortcuts to the active part. In that case this bug is more general than just this plugin, I guess.
Also happens with Ctrl+S and the space bar (which is scrolling the preview instead of writing a space), so it's unusable for me right now.
Bug report in kate/plugin-preview is bug 386265
I just encountered this problem, with using Okular to preview markdown files in Kate. CTRL-C, and even CTRL-S was reported as ambiguous. I cannot save my file without closing the Preview or using the Menu bar I'm happy with bug got reported already but sad to see its a few years old.

Aye - what a shame! I guess Kate needs to be able to detect active panel (editor or preview) to determine where to invoke shortcuts. It'd almost usable if it wasn't for not being able to use the spacebar in the editor while the preview panel is open.

my workaround: assign CTRL+ALT+P to open/close preview in Kate shortcuts (CTRL+SHIFT+P conflicts with 'start presentation')
