the cursor- , home/end (editing-keypad) keys different backspace key. send type of escape sequence. backspace key not. sends single command character, makes control sequence, rather escape sequence. distinction used in xterm manual.

control/backspace (like case control-modifier applied control character) feature may provided terminal, has no general meaning (much less standard meaning). rxvt (during 1990s) used combination switch between ascii bs (^h or 8) , del (^?, or 127). xterm incorporated in 1998 (patch #83) same purpose. way, vt220 emulator, xterm refers "backarrow key" (vt200s had that, not backspace key).

putty not appear provide feature; behavior control/backspace same without control-modifier.
