            Bug ID: 880500
           Summary: 'ESC' should not cancel the translation editing
           Product: Zanata
           Version: 2.0
         Component: Component-UI, Usability
          Severity: unspecified
          Priority: high
          Reporter: dchen at redhat.com

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #729843 +++

Description of problem:

For Japanese, input process for a word is: 
 type in by sounds
 -> determine the ending of the word
 -> convert to Japanese (first candidate)
 -> show other candidates list (if first one is not right and mostly not right)
 -> choose right candidate from the list
 -> determine translation. 

Any stage, translator can go back if she wants. For
example, translator can return from 'show other candidates list' back to
'convert first candidate' by pressing 'ESC' key. However in zanata, if
translator accidentally press 'ESC' twice, entire input just simply is
cancelled. This hurts especially when translator lost lengthy translation.

VERIFIED with Zanata version 1.4-SNAPSHOT (20110901-1705)

======================================================================
This bug is reproduceable in 2.0.

Since the expected behavior of the translation entry is act like a plain
textarea, i.e., pressing Esc should not clean the textarea.

Ctrl-a and Backspace should be sufficiently fast to clean a textarea.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Zanata version 2.0.3-SNAPSHOT (20121127-0017)

Steps to reproduce:
1. In translation editor, type something
2. Press "Esc"

Actual:
The text you type is canceled.

Expected:
Nothing changed
