I would consider myself very keyboard shortcut-literate but somehow I've only found out today that Ctrl + Backspace deletes an entire word instead of an individual character.
I'll probably stuck to using my own solution (hold Ctrl+Shift, tap left or right cursor arrow to select entire words, then Backspace) because it's generally hard-wired now and useful in more situations, but I'm still surprised I'd never come across this before.
Meh. I didn't know that one either, though it DOES make sense.
I love KB shortcuts. I used to challenge the other IT manager I worked with in Her Majesty's Civil Service, to races to complete a give task, with me using shortcuts and she using her mouse. Didn't take long to persuade her that shortcuts were the better solution for lots of common tasks.
