The attached patch introduces the readline-like behaviour of pressing ^W to unix-word-rubout and ^D to delete-char in the input layer.

Currently, pressing ^D in the input layer accepts the input string (as does pressing ^M and ^J), which I think is a little unusual behaviour.

This is an RFE with a patch.
