`Ctrl-D` is shadowed on macOS

Ctrl-D is a globally supported key binding for forward character deletion, which is a very basic and very common editing operation, but it's assigned todef as.

If I'm not mistaken, even VS Code defines Ctrl-D as the deleteRight action by default.

The alternative on Apple keyboards is to use Fn-Delete, which is not so commonly known (probably), neither as convenient as Ctrl-D (especially on smaller, custom keyboards).

Ctrl+Shift+D however is not defined by default, so that would be one alternative as a default binding.

It would be also more memorable, since the Viewer: dropdown right next to it also has a Shifted shortcut.

To prevent further complaints about key bindings, I concur that https://github.com/nubank/morse/issues/3 would be a great feature.
