Text Input word boundaries are inconvenient (unexpected Ctrl+Backspace behavior)
When working with path strings, I frequently use Ctrl+Backspace
to remove a node from the path. However, in all the input widgets, the word boundaries are inconsistent with the convention of \
being a word boundary. So instead of removing a node (usually), it removes the entire path.
eg C:\Data\my\data
(Ctrl+Backspace
) ->
instead of the expected C:\Data\my\data
(Ctrl+Backspace
) -> C:\Data\my\
