The easiest way is to use org.eclipse.ui.bindings extension point. Just add it to the manifest.xml of your editor plugin. There you can add a key which is the shortcut and a command which should be used when this shortcut is pressed. Your command then needs to delete your modelartefact.

For standard GEF Editor the easiest way is to use a GEF ActionBarContributor. But for MultiPageEditor it is not able to provide support for tracking changes. You have tu support this somehow.

In my case I propagate selection in GEF editor like this:
getSite().setSelectionProvider(this.getGraphicalViewer());

and MultiPageEditor has to provide a org.eclipse.ui.part.MultiPageEditorActionBarContributor

check also this www.eclipsezone.com/eclipse/forums/t46499.html.

good luck
