Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, I'm going to take a stab because
I'm trying to learn this.

bpython doesn't currently support prev/next words. You could add this to
bpython, but you'd have trouble binding it to ctrl+left arrow - as I
understand it, ctrl-left array and ctrl-right arrow aren't passed through
by the curses terminal wrapper library in any nice way, so with the curses
frontend you're stuck, it can't be easily implemented.

However, I've implemented it in my alternate bpython frontend which doesn't
use the curses library. I'm working toward getting a patch prepared for -
it's currently in a git repo at
https://github.com/thomasballinger/scottwasright, but if all goes well and
people like it it could be in bpython trunk before too long.

(this was actually just an excuse to tell you about it :)
