GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 647303
Looking Glass don't close with Esc key if it's selected a tab other than Evaluator

As it is explained on the summary, the looking glass feature (at least on fedora live image) don't close if you are using a tab other than Evaluator. To close the lg you have to (re)select the Evaluator tab, then press the Esc key. In my opinion it should close on all tabs, not just on the Evaluator tab. In addition, as it's commented on the bug 642664, the lg should close or minimize if it looses focus (and if it's implemented a minimize function, then can be added a key to bring it up again).
It would be nice if the Esc key also worked for the Picker pane.
Created attachment 186376 [details] [review] lookingGlass: make Esc work on any page The lg window was losing focus when the page with the entry got unmapped; fix it to refocus itself after that. Fixing this problem revealed that previously we were focusing the entry on open(), but not ensuring that that page was selected, meaning you could type into the entry without being able to see it. Fix that.
It sometimes work well when you exit lg last time because you click on a url and thus enter "extensions" tab next time entering. (But it still annoying)
Review of attachment 186376 [details] [review]: Looks OK.
