P: Lightroom for Windows doesn't support Ctrl + Backspace in text fields

In any other app in Windows, Ctrl + Backspace will delete the word to the left of the cursor. This keyboard combo does not work in Lightroom; instead, some kind of unprintable character is _added_ to the contents of the text field.

 

Lightroom 9.1

Windows 11
