[Accessibility] Pressing Esc to close a select dropdown/menu closes modal dialog

[patrickhlauke]

Steps To Reproduce

1. Open "File > Settings" dialog
2. Open one of the custom select dropdown/menus (like "Vault timeout")
3. Press Esc to close the select

Expected Result

The select/dropdown closes, focus returns to the closed dropdown/menu trigger element, but the modal settings dialog remains open.

Actual Result

Both the select dropdown/menu and the settings dialog itself are closed.

Video: in Windows, opening the "Vault timeout" select dropdown/menu with the keyboard, then pressing Esc to close it - both the select and the actual settings dialog are closed.

Additional Context

Suspect the solution here is to prevent the Esc keypress from bubbling up and triggering the "close the entire dialog" behaviour.
