Description

With the new shortcut editor, it is not possible to use either Space or Escape keys in shortcuts as they either trigger cancel or activate in the shortcut composition dialog instead.

These shortcuts are used in window menu activation (Alt-Space) and window operation cancellation (Escape) so if anyone tris to modify those shortcuts, there is no way to use the keys except by restoring defaults and loosing all other customization.
