Dialog/menu [Esc] keyboard shortcut consistency
« on: April 23, 2021, 04:18:36 PM »

The main "market" menu looks like:
1. Open the comm directory
2. Take a shuttle down to visit a dockside bar
3. Trade goods or hire crew [ I ], buy or sell ships [ F ], or refit [ R ]
4. Repair your ships at the dockyard [ A ]
5. Consider your military options
6. Leave [ Esc ]

Pressing 2, the menu looks like:
1. Talk to the woman from the military offering bounties
2. Leave the bar [ Esc ]

Pressing 1, the dialog looks like:
1. "I'd prefer a more manageable target."
2. "Whatever you"ve got works for me."
3. "I can handle a more challenging target."
4. "Maybe another time." (decline)

I wish the fourth option in the last menu/dialog above worked like the previous ones, that is having support for the ESC keyboard shortcut to end the dialog / leave the menu without any new commitment. Same in dialog with officers, and probably several others.

Suggestion for the bar bounty dialog:

4. "Maybe another time." (decline [ Esc ])
