Comment 4 Jesse Glick 2004-06-08 15:08:53 UTC 
I have to say that Ctrl-Backspace is a poor choice of KB shortcut for
something having to do with window manipulation. Normal apps use
Ctrl-Backspace to mean "delete previous word", what our editor (for
mysterious reasons) binds to Ctrl-W.

Something like Ctrl-Escape would at least more closely resemble other
window-related shortcuts.

Is this shortcut overridable in the normal IDE key bindings dialog, at
least?
