Title:
  Ctrl+Backspace should send ^W instead of doing the same thing as
  Backspace

Status in gnome-terminal package in Ubuntu:
  Opinion

Bug description:
  I'm using Linux Mint 17. In the Gnome Terminal when hitting
  Ctrl+Backspace just one character is being deleted (^H). In normal
  Gtk+ applications this key combination deletes the previous word
  (Ctrl+W) in Bash. There's also no way for Bash to distinguish between
  Ctrl+Backspace and Backspace.

  Therefore I think there should be an option to send ^W on
  Ctrl+Backspace or Ctrl+Backspace should be distinguishable for Bash so
  that I can bind it myself.
