Backspace is Exiting Power Apps and Removing objects

Help!

 

When I go to clear text I have not only ended up deleting objects by pressing backspace one time too many - but I have been backed right out of Power Apps completely because backspace is the default browser command for 'go back' when there is no focus.

 

What typically happens is that I will see something like 3 characters I want to remove, I click on the field/area and then rapid fire the backspace key, the text is removed, then the container object is deleted and the screen flashes a bit, and I'm back to my email inbox or something.

 

I've been using the Vivaldi browser. Any tips to overcome this issue? Is there a desktop development platform?
