escapable

[ianstormtaylor]

curious, is the overlay not escapable on purpose? or would it make sense to pull the escapability from dialog into overlay instead?

building my own overlay and wishing escapable was baked in

no specific reason, we could even go full-retard and have an escape component since low-level event stuff is annoying:

escape(this.hide.bind(this));

[ianstormtaylor]

yeah i like the idea of that being its own component. might even be better as a hotkey component in general:

hotkey.escape(this.hide.bind(this));

or actually:

hotkey('esc', this.hide.bind(this));

so that this kind of stuff could be supported:

hotkey('cmd+w', this.hide.bind(this));

[tj]

we've got a few of those already I think, mousetrap for sure, bit overkill when you just need one key but hey

[ianstormtaylor]

yeah true, especially for escape which would want to be used in lots of modals/popovers/etc
