When entering cell data, Shift-Backspace acts like Enter. As a result, when
you're typing something such as "Just saying HEM<shift-backspace>LLO", the whole
contents of the cell disappear to only contain "LLO". This is a very confusing
behavior, especially since virtually all applications define Shift-Backspace as
equivalent to Backspace (including Excel, word processors including OOo Writer,
browsers like IE/Firefox/Chrome...). So the user is likely not even aware that
he's pressing Shift-Backspace instead of Backspace, he just sees the contents of
the cell disappear spontaneously!

This issue is made worse on some international keyboards such as AZERTY (French)
because unless you have a numeric keypad they require you to use Shift to type
numbers. Since spreadsheets use a lot of numbers this bug is even more likely to
appear on these layouts.
