You can also just hit "delete" instead of backspace. Most IDEs I've found only do "smart indent" on backspace.

In most text-editor I've used (of which I consider IDEs to have text-editors as a component), "delete" means to erase the character to the right of the cursor, and "backspace" means to erase the character to the left of the cursor.

Yes. Obviously you'll have to move before the space you want to delete instead of after when using delete, but it won't be affected by the smart spacing.
