Sure, it replaces the whole inset with the contents of the cell. If the
cell is empty, the inset will vanish entirely.
It is exactly what I want. As it has been like that for ages I'd expect
it is what quite a few people expect.
I do *not* like this behavior because it deletes something
unexpectedly. Bug 686 calls to remove *empty* cell with backspace or
del, but in this case, it removes the whole structure because one of
the cells is empty. Why should operations in the superscript of x^a_b
removes x and its subscript? Following this logic, you should remove
the whole matrix if you do backspace in a matrix cell. This does not
make sense to me at all.
And there is this 'del' problem. Should it behave the same as 'bs' for
empty cell?
