You will also get users that vehemently insist that CTRL-W should
delete a line of text when in an input field (and not close the
current window). For example, there has been a lot of Mozilla/GNOME
traffic generated by this issue.

Getting keybindings "right" is really hard, (probably only slightly
less difficult than getting focus right---and again, there are huge
piles of focus-related issues in both Mozilla and GNOME as well).
