The current keyboard backspacing is absolutely backwards from what the standard should be.

If I am tap typing and need to backspace, the backspace will delete the entire word. In this situation it should only delete letters one at a time.

If I swipe text, and want to use backspace, it will delete each letter one by one. This should not happen when using swipe, as it should delete the entire word instead.

PLEASE give us the option to change this, or at least change it by default.
