Unfortunately this is a limitation of the terminal backend crossterm which handles user input. Essentially the control modifier never registers when a user hits backspace. You can read more about the issue here.
I'm keeping a close eye on this issue myself because I also want to see this added! I'm glad you said what you did though, because in my head ctrl+backspace should delete the whole line back to the beginning, but I think going back to the start of the current word makes more sense for what this is. You mentioned that most typing tests do that, but out of curiosity if you press ctrl+backspace in a normal text field or document, does it delete the entire line as it does for me? That's always what I've associated ctrl+backspace as doing.

Ah, that's tough! I guess we'll just have to wait on that crossterm issue. Ctrl+backspace does just delete the last word for me, I assumed that's how it works for most people – never heard of it deleting a line. TIL

Closing this just because I have my eyes on the issue and know it's main blocker!
