Backspace should not remove geometry

[DylanBryant]

Backspace.in.dialogue.boxes.mp4

• At least on windows, backspace should not delete geometry. That should be reserved for the delete key.
  - One area where this is a problem: When creating 3D geometry or using the Prompt-to-edit features, if you hold backspace to remove the text, it does not stop within the dialogue box and continues to delete the geometry.

Thanks reporting this @DylanBryant. I'll mark it as Bug first as I think either way no deletion should be attempted in this case and we should guard for that. Then we can talk about separating backspace and delete on non-mac platforms yes that's also a good point

Okay I don't think that the command palette should dismiss when the user hits Backspace or Delete. We have it "step back" in the command palette from an argument (like the prompt argument in the video), but I don't think it should go all the way out of the command palette use state; that should be reserved to explicit dismssal with Escape. Then this state won't be reachable.

was this fixed, i notice there was no regression test for it so ill leave the issue open and add a label

@jessfraz @franknoirot on top of that the other part of this issue is that backspace on windows (and likely linux) shouldn't be used for delete cause there is a real delete key there (compared to macOS that merges some of the deletion patterns into backspace that is called delete). See
