there is nothng "fundamenal" about that operation.  It's one special case
of a general operation.  The traditional way to do it in Emacs is

  C-p C-a C-k C-k C-y C-y.

Every user who can do basic editing in Emacs knows how to do this,
and givem how (n)frequent this operation is, that's short enough.
