Delete snippet trigger by word instead of by char

[esv]

It seems to me that Alfred is sending X amount of backspaces to delete the snippet keyword trigger (visually slow) and insert the snippet text via clipboard (not so slow)

But Mac has these functions that are available in any text fields defined via ~/Library/KeyBindings/DefaultKeyBinding.dict that can move by Word instead of the slow movements by char

Would it be possible to somehow integrate this into Alfred and (depending on the keyword composition) delete back by word+char instead of just by char (e.g., Alfred would simulate a custom keybind and this keybind would be defined to delete a word)?
