And deleting in that fashion from the right is mentioned by UAX#29 with the implication that it is a sensible way of doing things. Emacs is civilised in that it allows one to delete character by character from either end. That may, however, require some intelligence on the part of the user so that they don't get confused or frightened when the text rearranges itself. However, it seems that one has to modify the source code of Emacs to be able to edit in the middle of a cluster (other than by substitution commands). Or am I overlooking some per-window 'reveal codes' mode that the cognoscenti can use? Richard.
