Feature Request: Cntrl+arrow cursor navigation

I think a recent update let you navigate around the text box rather than having to delete everything to go back and change things. A next step would be use CNTRL+arrowkeys to jump whole words to more quickly move around.

Reference: I'm on WSL2 using Wezterm

This issue might be a duplicate of existing issues. Please check:

Use Ctrl + arrow keys to move faster #2520: Request for Ctrl + arrow keys to move faster in input box
Standard keyboard cursor navigation (Home/End key, ctrl+left/right key) #2649: Standard keyboard cursor navigation including ctrl+left/right key support
ctrl + arrow key no longer moves word-to-word #1975: Reports that ctrl + arrow key word-to-word navigation was broken
Implement Ctrl-Left Ctrl-Right shortcuts for moving between words #2134: (Closed) Previously requested Ctrl-Left Ctrl-Right shortcuts for moving between words

Feel free to ignore if none of these address your specific case.

duplicate of #1975

and #2520

the most fulsome issue for this seems to be #2649
