That's a problem with off-list discussions: no one knows about them.
More to the point, can you explain why we need this, given the
existence of kill-word?
Also, this kills backward, something that is not evident, neither from
the name of the command nor from the doc string (and the obscure
reference to Unix doesn't help, IMO).
Finally, having another command that kills the region doesn't seem
justified, or is it?
