When an agent is running, opening an overlay and pressing Escape to dismiss it
also interrupts the agent — the same as pressing Escape to stop it. The overlay
closes as expected, but the agent stops too, even though I only wanted to close
the overlay.
Clearest case: sidebar workspace ⋯ menu → "Rename workspace" → press Escape to
cancel. The rename dialog closes and the running agent is interrupted.
Expected: Escape closes the overlay and leaves the agent running. Escape should
only interrupt the agent when no overlay is open.
It isn't specific to the rename dialog — the same thing happens with other
Escape-dismissible overlays: the workspace ⋯ menu itself, dropdown/combobox
pickers, the project/worktree picker, the fullscreen image lightbox, and the
composer's @-mention suggestion popup.
Steps to reproduce
Open the desktop app (or web) and pair a daemon.
Start an agent and give it a task so it's actively working.
In the sidebar, open a workspace's ⋯ menu and choose "Rename workspace".
Press Escape to cancel the rename dialog.
The dialog closes — and the running agent is interrupted (stops working).
Expected: the dialog closes and the agent keeps working.
