Apparently there was a reason why nano showed ^_ instead of ^/ for Go-To-Line: on a Linux console, ^/ produces ^?, which does a backspace. :|

Yes, after a night's sleep I concluded the same thing, because even if it's only the Linux console that treats ^/ differently, when the user tries to rebind ^/, this will not work on a VT. :|
Fixed in git, commit 8f1a657a.
And closing, because unreleased.
