Delete from cursor to end of line in vim command-mode

In vim, I can use ctrl-u to delete all characters to the left of my cursor in command mode. For example:

:hello |there
:|there

Is there a way to delete all characters to the right of my cursor? For example:

:hello |there
:hello |

If not, what might be a reasonable mapping to do this? The only thing I could think of is something a bit hairy, such as:

:onoremap <c-k> <Delete><Delete><Delete><Delete><Delete><Delete><Delete><Delete><Delete><Delete>...

cnoremap <c-k> <c-\>egetcmdline()[:getcmdpos()-2]<CR>

See :h c_CTRL-\_e, :h getcmdline() and :h getcmdpos().
