Re: [w3c/editing] Should we expose physical direction in Deletion commands? (for the case of RTL) (#133)

> AFAIK, there is no key binding for line deletion. So, it is hard to imagine what forward/backward deletion of line.

On macOS (Firefox, Chrome, Safari and native apps):

1. `command+delete` is `DeleteLineBackward`
  - On Chrome it maps to [`- deleteToBeginningOfLine:`](https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/Cocoa/Reference/ApplicationKit/Classes/NSResponder_Class/#//apple_ref/occ/instm/NSResponder/deleteToBeginningOfLine:)
2. `control+k` is Emacs-style `Kill`
  - On Chrome it maps to [`- deleteToEndOfParagraph:`](https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/Cocoa/Reference/ApplicationKit/Classes/NSResponder_Class/#//apple_ref/occ/instm/NSResponder/deleteToEndOfParagraph:) but actually acts like `DeleteLineForward` (e.g. It will stop on `<br>` instead of `</p>`, if I used it correctly)

I'm not sure about the implementation details on Firefox or Safari, but the behaviors are the same.

(note: `command+fn+delete` won't do `DeleteLineForward` for me)
