I would find the following two functions useful in bash command line editing; is it possible to simulate them somehow with the current bash version, or would this have to be a new feature in a future version of bash?
(1) yank 0th arg, similar to yank-last-arg, but copies the command part of the previous line into the current buffer. Example: The previous line was /usr/local/bin/perl myprog.pl then yank-0th-arg should insert /usr/local/bin/perl into the buffer. (2) delete-backward-argument, similar to delete-backward-word, but should delete everything to the left until the first white space.
