[Alpine-info] what happened to ^W^X (delete rest of text)?

[D. Hugh Redelmeier]

I'm using Alpine 2.26 from Fedora Linux's repo.

When composing a message, I used to be able to type ^W^X to delete from 
the current position to the end of the message.

I admit that the sequence was quite odd: how does ^W (Whereis) logically 
encompass "delete from here on"?  But I got used to that feature.

In a recent update, the feature disappeared (or became disabled).
Can I re-enable it?

Common sense says that ^^ (mark) and ^K (delete from mark to current 
position) is a better choice, but my fingers know ^W^X.
