I suggest M-Backspace should be an additional default keybinding for
backward-kill-word.  It is consistent with the default binding M-Left
for backward-word and M-Right for forward-word.  The current default,
^W, is (no doubt) convenient once you get used to it, but a consistent
interface is easier to discover and learn.

That would require adding the line

Meta-RUBOUT: backward-kill-word

to file "fish_inputrc".

This works in gnome-terminal, Putty and XTerm (you may need to add
"XTerm*metaSendsEscape: true" or "XTerm*eightBitInput: true" to your
.Xresources file.)
