I tried to write two commands. One for "DELETE" and one for "BACK_SPACE".
These are my commands:

<cfg:keyPressed code="BACK_SPACE"/>

parameter="backwards"/>

Correct.
and
<cfg:binding>
<cfg:keyPressed code="BACK_SPACE"/>
<cfg:command name="deleteSelectionOrJoinBlockOrDeleteChar"/>
</cfg:binding>
It's code="DELETE", not code="BACK_SPACE" for this one.
(This is the only specification which is consistent with the DeleteChar
part of the command.)
I expected that these command will delete characters, which they do.
But I also expected them to join elements like paragraphs, which they
don't do.
I.e. I wanted to join the elements <para> to one <para> with all the
text, when I set the cursor to the beginning of the second para and
press the delete-button:
Press the BACK_SPACE key at the *beginning* of *second* para, not the
DELETE key.
Alternatively move the caret to the *end* of *first* para and press the
DELETE key.
<para>abc</para>
<para>def</para>
-> should be <para>abcdef</para>
Also in this case both para-elements should be joined after setting the
cursor at the beginning of the second para and pressing the delete-button.
<list>
<point>
<para>Part 1</para>
<para>Part 2</para>
</point>
</list>
Could you please tell me why joining to paragraphs is not working in my
case?
Moreover, for block-related commands like
"deleteSelectionOrJoinBlockOrDeleteChar" to work, your configuration
file must contain a <cfg:property> called "$c blockList" (where $c is
automatically replaced by the name of the configuration):
DocBook v5 example:
---
<property name="$c blockList">
{http://docbook.org/ns/docbook}bridgehead=heading
{http://docbook.org/ns/docbook}simpara
{http://docbook.org/ns/docbook}term
{http://docbook.org/ns/docbook}para=paragraph
{http://docbook.org/ns/docbook}itemizedlist/{http://docbook.org/ns/docbook}listitem
{http://docbook.org/ns/docbook}orderedlist/{http://docbook.org/ns/docbook}listitem
{http://docbook.org/ns/docbook}callout
{http://docbook.org/ns/docbook}step
</property>
<binding>
<keyPressed code="DELETE" />
<command name="deleteSelectionOrJoinBlockOrDeleteChar" />
</binding>
<binding>
<keyPressed code="BACK_SPACE" />
<command name="deleteSelectionOrJoinBlockOrDeleteChar"
parameter="backwards" />
</binding>
