Use «Delete» key to delete elements #11

I noticed that Backspace can be used to delete the selected elements, but at first I tried to use Delete as it was the most obvious shortcut in my mind for removing elements.

Making Delete to behave as Backspace would be an (hopefully) easy way to improve the user experience.

Feel free to close this issue if you don't like the idea, I just opened this to suggest some ideas for future enhancements if you look for such!

Ah, that makes sense. I just kinda got used to the fact there's no Backspace button on Mac's laptops :)

Del shortcut would be really welcome. I tried the Del to remove elements intuitively as first-choice, but I found it does not work. So I was a little disappointed and removed elements slowly by first selecting them, then clicked Trash button.

I would never found out, that Backspace works - it is not intuitive Del shortcut is the first choice for people having Windows.
