Thus spake Johan Danielsson ("JD> ") sometime Today...

This seems to me to be a lot of work for very little gain; why not

	stty erase '^H'

and be done with it?  BS == \010 == \x8 == 8 == (ctrl+H) == "Backspace" ==
[<-].

Usually I try to find some way of mapping both shift-backspace and
control-backspace to send DEL (^?, \x7f, ...) (which I use for my interrupt
key -- this also dates back to keyboards which have big DELETE keys
"in case of emergency...").
