I presume you mean 'moving the cursor to the middle of the input line'? 
Konsole is not responsible for positioning the cursor - that is done by the
program reading the input, typically a shell such as bash.  The input line is
typically read by a library called readline which has a bunch of shortcuts for
moving the cursor and manipulating the text.  For example Ctrl+Left/Right arrow
moves the cursor one word to the left or right.  Home/End move to the start or
end of the line.  A limited set of these work in normal text input fields in
most applications as well.
