Odd, the first thing I configure in Reflection is destructive backspace.
I've used it since it was introduced years ago without any problem. If in
block mode, and I want non-destructive backspace, I use the arrow keys.
Simple.

When I used to work for an application software vendor, we found that it was
much less confusing for new users familiar with PC applications to configure
destructive backspace. Bottom line, I guess it is what you are used to.
