[Pkg-libvirt-maintainers] Bug#569341: same for ^W

every time i login to a debian VM on the console using virt-manager, i
type and edit command lines in bash. one of the most important editing
keys in bash is ^W (delete prev word). every time i do that, the console
is closed. using ^W while editing command lines is a long-ingrained
habit, so i do it repeatedly during any session.
this is, to put it very mildly, extremely annoying.
the virt-manager console window does not need and should not have
keybindings for its menus. all key-strokes (except for Ctrl-Alt to
release the pointer) should be sent to the VM exactly as typed.
at the very least, menu keybindings should be a configurable option. i
don't care much what the default is, as long as there's a way for me to
turn them all off.
