[patrickhlauke]

Steps To Reproduce

1. Open extension window
2. Go to "Vault"
3. Open a filter dropdown menu
4. Press Esc to close the dropdown

Expected Result

Esc should close the menu, reset focus back to the button to open the menu

Actual Result

The extension's window is closed

Additional Context

This does not happen when extension has been popped out into its own window - there, it behaves correctly. Suspect the solution here is to prevent the Esc keypress from bubbling up and triggering the "close the entire extension popup" behaviour.

This happens with all instances of custom dropdown menus, like the "+ New" button menu, the "New send" one, etc.

Issue Tracking Info

• I understand that work is tracked outside of Github. A PR will be linked to this issue should one be opened to address it, but Bitwarden doesn't use fields like "assigned", "milestone", or "project" to track progress.

Some more examples of when this happens...

Video: Chrome/Windows - three-dot menu for item in the vault, "+ New" menu at the top of the extension, "Add Field > Field type" select/dropdown (this closes the whole "Add Field" modal, not the whole extension window, but the cause is still the same ... Esc bubbling up), "New send" menu,
