Description
Please get "Backspace Unindents" working for  BRIEF mode.  Right now it is ignored.  Other keymaps include extensions to customize behavior beyond the 'stock' behavior of the emulated editor.  BRIEF should be able to do backspace unindents with spaces being set as opposed to tabs.

This was marked 'As Designed' for BDS2006, but it is not good behavior as it makes the editor not play well with others who are using spaces as tabs, and makes backspace not work correctly (always backspacing through spaces rather than intelligently moving back to the previous tab stop).
