I talked to the BBEdit folks about having some way to un-indent with 
one keystroke, but I didn't manage to convince them. They considered it 
"too magic" (even for shift-TAB or some such combination), and my 
citing oodles of Unix editors that all have this feature didn't 
convince them.

But, of course, if more people request an un-indent command, maybe at 
some point they'll yield:-)
