Ctrl-K works well to cut the current line, and I think lots of folks are familiar with it, so I think it makes a good default key combo. One nice thing you might add to the preferences is to let users configure whether Ctrl-K cuts the whole current line, or else cuts from the current cursor position to the end of the line (as Emacs does). GNU nano has an option like this.
I guess you meant delete, not cut.
Whoops. Yes, Delete.
Personally, I don't think this is necessary, because we have ctrl- shift-delete to do that. Also there's a nice symmetry with ctrl-shift- backspace to delete to the start of the line, and that without shift these apply to words, instead of lines.
Right. You're right. Forgot about those. Thanks.
