Summary0001259: Customizable Hotkey for backing out of Context Menus
DescriptionObservation: The 'Special Move' menu has a 'Back' option, but no customizable hotkey for it. Currently you have to click it.

Suggestion: Add a 'back/close' option to all context menus (if there's no context menu to go Back to, Close instead), and have a customizable hotkey for that. My choice would be the ESC key.

This brings up another issue - currently, opening the In-Game menu will close Context Menus. Ideally if the suggested hotkey were implemented and I bound it to the same hotkey as the in-game menu, context menus should consume the input if they're open without letting the in-game menu handle it.
