Hi there! How to off new feature? Now for deleting layer i should press "Delete" twice - first for mask, second for layer. How can I fix that? I need deleting layer and mask together.

    When you are on a layer with as selected layer mask and you press backspace in Photoshop 2021 only the layer mask gets deleted. Previously the whole layer got deleted. It seems like a feature, but I haven't found it in the feature summary/fixed issues list. Which leads me to 2 questions: 1. Is anyone else seeing this behavior? 2. What other undocumented changes are there?
