I think the biggest problem here is a context one. When you use a shortcut inside a software, you don't (usually) think about the field focused. As I, like most of us here, use an IDE or a code editor every day, I think best context-free shortcuts involve more than one special key.

Even the alt + arrow shortcut is a bad idea because it mean "go to the beginning of the word" in Mac OS. I had very bad issue with the CMD + Arrow in my Chrome, because when I type I don't use the mouse.

Ctrl + CMD + Arrow is the perfect shortcut for me (and I think, for every XCode users).
