Eh, sure. If you want to fix it independent from your shell, application,
login method etc. you could just switch the key labels. If the shell(s)
you use support readline(3) you could put "^H: delete-char" into your
~/.inputrc and <backspace> will then eat the characters from the cursor
to the left.
