Ctrl-Backspace bugs with multiple carets

[zitot]

Posted this before as a reply to a diff thread but I don't know if you saw it so new topic.

I can reproduce case 1 and 2 but not 3.

Bug 1: Ctrl-Backspace only deletes word on the same line as the visible caret
Steps to reproduce:
1. Type in foo on line 1, bar on line 2
2. Select the last letter of each word
3. Observe the location of the visible caret.
4. Hit Ctrl-Backspace

What will happen:
The word with the visible caret will be deleted

Expected Result:
Delete both words up to the horizontal position of the caret

Bug 2: Ctrl-Backspace deletes first letter only
Steps to reproduce:
1. Select multiple letters of some words on subsequent lines as done previously
2. Hit an arrow key (preferably left or right, up or down might cancel the multicaret) or a letter on the keyboard
3. Hit Ctrl-Backspace
What will happen:
The first letter of the preceding word will be deleted on each line

Expected Result:
Delete all letters before the cursor on each line

Bug 3: C-Backspace deletes selected letters and first letter of word
e.g. if the last letter in a word is selected, then Ctrl+Backspace deletes the selection and the first letter.
I am unable to reproduce this.

Bug 1 and 2: I can indeed reproduce this. We'll fix it.

We'll also look into bug 3.
