Description Daniel Bates 2018-11-07 10:05:30 PST
We should recognize the key command Option + Delete and delete the previous word to more closely match iOS platform conventions.

Patch

It is not straightforward to write a test for this change because UIKit determines the modifier keys pressed (e.g. Option) by querying the keyboard directly. We could mock out the underlying keyboard though this seems fragile.
