Whether you use the block=big cursor method or not, let's keep it
simple. The Delete key should delete a block. Perhaps with the
stipulation that the cursor must be IN the block.
PLEASE keep this stuff simple. No configuration. Just follow the
standard. No extra shortcuts. These extra shortcuts just make things
MORE COMPLICATED, and people aren't going to even use them. If delete
doesn't delete a block, they're going to go to the menu bar to delete it,
and if they see something complicated like shift-ctrl-delete, they're
going to think we've been brainwashed by Wordperfect but skewed a little
and totally ignore the shortcut.
