Description

So while using Ctrl + A or Ctrl + E for jumping to a beginning or an ending of a string works, usingCtrl + K to kill the entire line does not seem to work for me, any fix for this? This is while typing in the directory bar (Cmd/Ctrl + P) to go to new directories etc.

appreciate any tips:)

Research direction

Reproduce the issue on macOS in the directory bar opened with Cmd/Ctrl+P, comparing Ctrl+A and Ctrl+E with Ctrl+K while editing a path. Trace the directory-bar text input handling and determine why Ctrl+K does not kill the entire line; done means the shortcut works there on Mac without regressing the other shortcuts.
