Hello

Do you mean in insert mode ? This *looks* like the behaviour of ^D (dedent,
while ^T is indent) which is vi's standard. I know BS may look practical
but it may just as well be bad habit given by vim, trying to be as
notepad-like editors.

You could remap backspace to ^D but you would loose (and miss) the standard
key.  Why not trying to get used back to the vi standard ?
