Delete marked region with py-electric-backspace py-electric-delete

Question

In my python-mode the backspace and delete keys gets remapped to py-electric-backspace, etc. This breaks the behaviour set by the variable delete-active-region.

Is there a way to unify the behaviour so that when I mark a region and press delete it will actually delete the region and if unmarked act as dedicated by py-electric-backspace?

A related question has been posted here, but not completely applicable.

EDIT: This has been fixed in the latest python-mode package by Andreas (See comments below)

Answer 1

The normal way to fix this is to fix py-electric-backspace to check use-region-p and delete-active-region and handle them as expected.

IOW, I'd submit a bug report to the maintainers of the package.
