Description
Hi, and first of all, thanks for the great library!
I'm trying to build something of a CLI agent interface clone with a text prompt and it seems that Option+Delete which I'd expect to delete a word completely breaks the buffer making it respond to nothing short of Ctrl+C. This is reproduced in all examples from this repo that I've checked.
Is this a known issue? Are there any workarounds?
