   From LightTable/LightTable#548:
   Open to a pull request on Python plugin that does this. CodeMirror provides indentLine which provides a "subtract" to do this. The keybinding would need to be bound to backspace, scoped to just python files and map to a command that does something like the following (haven't tested it in a python file):

   (let [ed (pool/last-active)]
         (.indentLine (editor/->cm-ed ed) (.-line (editor/cursor ed)) "subtract" true))
