To make it clear: "...never heard something like this": I never heard, that <BS> and <S-BS> produce different key codes.

Welcome to Vi and Vim! As Ralf mentions, this is strange (although comprehensible) behavior—it likely has to do with the terminal emulator and the way vim interprets key sequences. The community needs more detail before it can help you answer your question. Relevant info to edit in would be: OS, terminal emulator (and settings: is it emulating xterm? other?), Vim version, the result of typing <C-v><S-BS> in a buffer (type the keys, not the literal text).
