Problem Statement/Rationale

In the new mongosh shell, option + arrow keys don't work (this is on a mac, latest os) starting up the legacy mongo shell, the option keys work as expected

In mongosh, option + arrow just acts like a normal arrow key

Steps to Reproduce

I am accessing the mongo shell by typing mongosh. I type some code say. db.users.insert().   If I want to navigate around those words, in the legacy shell I can use option + left-arrow to go backward a word. However in mongosh, it only goes back one space ignoring the option key. https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/mongo-shell/

Expected Results

The expected behavior is for option +left-arrow to go back a word instead of a space as it does in the legacy shell and explains in the documentation.

Actual Results

In the new mongosh shell, option + arrow keys don't work

Additional Notes

I have the latest version of mongo docker https://hub.docker.com/_/mongo?tab=tags  v5.0.2 which runs mongosh v1.0.4. (I also have v5 run directonly on my machine which has mongosh v1.0.3)

I have mongo installed natively on my laptop. I also have it as a docker container. Running mongosh on the latest macOS has this issue. Running mongosh in docker also has this problem.

In the native mongo shell, the option keys work in both the native OS and the docker container
