In OS X, CMD+Delete is expected to delete all text from the spot of the current cursor to the beginning of the line.  This works properly in other Mac applications and in Safari.

In Firefox, CMD+Delete does not work in any webpage text boxes, nor does it work in the Address Bar.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Insert your cursor in a text box or address bar, midway through the line
2. On a Mac, press CMD+Delete
Actual Results:  
Hear a ding/beep, no text is deleted

Expected Results:  
The text from the cursor's location to the beginning of the line is supposed to be deleted.
