Steps to reproduce:

Simply open a Word document, a file in Wordpad, a new message in Thunderbird, etc. and start typing some words. Move a few words backwards via Control+Left. Now try deleting words to the right of the cursor with Control+Delete.

Actual behavior:

NVDA remains silent as each word gets deleted via Control+Delete.

Expected behavior:

NVDA should echo the deleted word, or the portion of it which is being deleted.
