Description
Basically the title, and it should be easy to reproduce. This is notably different from the default behavior of readline with zsh-vi-mode and vim itself, and it is annoying/unexpected when holding down shift typing in upper case.

Research direction
No file or test is named. Start by reproducing shift+backspace with use_kitty_protocol = true, then trace reedline's keyboard handling for that input and compare it with the stated readline, zsh-vi-mode, and Vim behavior. Done means shift+backspace performs the expected editing action instead of doing nothing.
