Hi, thanks very much for reporting this!

Emacs provides a mode normal-erase-is-backspace-mode, which tries to remap delete and kp-delete via the local-function-key-map to delete forward when turned on.

This still allows global and local maps to remap delete and kp-delete if they wish so.

I have now tried in a separate branch (https://github.com/benjaminor/kkp/tree/handle-delete-keys) to turn normal-erase-is-backspace-mode on when KKP is enabled. This should solve your issue, could you verify this?

I suspect kp-delete has the same problem

~~Unfortunately it does not. The behavior remains exactly the same, as far as I can see.~~ ~~Furthermore, toggling `(normal-erase-is-backspace)` again, makes backspace delete **forward**, while Delete still deletes backwards.~~

No, that's wrong. It _does_ work. I had an older version of kkp in my load path 😅. Sorry about that!
