Selecting and deleting a child element isn't easy

[globallyunique]

A child that isn't part of a list requires two steps to delete:

• select the entire child
• use the 'delete' key rather than the backspace key

using the right key on a Mac isn't simple.
knowing what and how to select the element to be deleted seems tricky.

I just discovered that option-cmd on a mac selects a child expression and then the delete key removes it. This helps make deleting a child easier.

The delete is not reversible by undo. Is that a bug or a known limit?

This should work, so this qualifies as a bug.
