have anything similar to modern behavior when handling the
delete/backspace key where the character is deleted from the
input and rubbed out? The default, like in v6/v7 for erase and
kill is # and @. I can live with this, if I can't get it to do
the rubout, because at least you can see the # in the input,
but if I can figure out how to get it to rubout the last
character, I'd map erase to DEL, which I believe to be ^U (but
since it's invisible, it's confusing when it doesn't rubout).

You should be able to do `stty
erase \^H` and `stty echoe` to get the rubout behavior you
want with ^H (and of course you can combine them into one stty
line)
