[Rq] delete/ backspace support

[ldong]

I wonder if you could add deletion support while typing.

For example:

When I type 'helloworld', but I accidentally typed 'hellowword'.

If I want to search it, I have to hit 'ESC' and then type 'helloworld'

Is it possible, to delete w instead of typing the whole thing again. Thanks for considering it.

Good idea! Not sure when I'll have time to hack on this again, but you're welcome to submit a patch adding that ability.
