If you're on a split line and right-click you'll see two options
of interest:  Delete Transaction and Remove Transaction Splits.  If you
click on Delete Transaction it will realize you only want to delete the
Split and the pop-up confirmation will even say that.

But this only works if you've already selected the split you want
to delete -- so you have to left-click first to select the split line
and then you can right-click to delete just that split.
