The state of the Control modifier determines whether line breaks which Konsole inserts to wrap long lines of text are preserved in the copied output.  In other words, copying a block of text with Control pressed and pasting it will give output laid out exactly as it is seen in Konsole.  That it results in an extra new-line character at the end which can be used to paste-and-execute is a side-effect.  

I have to say, I personally prefer the new behavior and find it more predictable.
