If the cursor is to the right of 5 (only in insert mode):
Backspace deletes 5 and cursor moves left 1.
Delete removes the EOL so we get

For me, BOTH backspace and delete give me 12345vwxyz
When I go into "edit profile" in konsole, on the Keyboard tab I am
apparently set to use the linux console (that is confirmed if I look
at the name within 'edit'), but both that and xfree work the same.
There used to be a setting to specify ^H, I think, but the values do
not seem to actually be editable.
Ah! Success! If I change the settings to 'Solaris' the backspace
key is shown as producing '\b' and backspace in insert mode works as
I expect it to, both within the line and when at the end of the
line.
It must have something to do with the keyboard you use. That's about the only
thing I can think of that would make a difference.
