You can create custom shortcuts too. You could create a key combo which fires a delete, then a Ctrl+B. I have to search for the link how to create such custom shortcuts, i will post when i find it...

It does a Wire cleanup after removal, but blocks should stay in place.

Yes the blocks stay Thanks
I prefer the shortcut more without rewiring.
