           Summary: inconsistent ui: ctrl+arrow should jump between words,
                    not alt+arrow
           Product: konsole
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: SuSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: konsole-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: georg.wittenburg at gmx.net


Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.1.1)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
OS:          Linux

When editing a command line in Konsole, you can only jump between words with alt+{left|right}arrow. This UI is inconsistent to other KDE applications in which ctrl+{left|right}arrow is used for the same thing. 

I think this is a problem in Konsole rather than bash as it works fine when using xterm. ctrl+{left|right}arrow does nothing in Konsole, so it can be safely added without breaking expected behavior of other users.
