Description Mark Macdonald CLA 2011-11-22 11:24:01 EST
Chrome 16, Firefox 9
Mac OS X 10.6.8

1. Open a file in the Orion editor.
2. Put the caret somewhere and press Cmd+Shift+Backspace.

I expected the Clear Private Data wizard to appear, but instead the editor does a "delete word".

That came from Windows and it is not right for the Mac.

Cmd+Delete and  Cmd+Shift+Delete on the mac is the delete line action
tested on safari, chrome, and TextEdit

Firefox does not implement this behavior

Also note that on Chrome, if a textArea has focus, Cmd+Shift+Delete will not open the 'Clear Private Data' wizard.

This is the correct behavior for edit areas (INPUT, TEXTAREA, contenteditable).
