Description Alexey Kotlyarov 2010-04-09 09:10:31 UTC 
When changing text fields in "About me" dialog, the behavior of Esc key is inconsistent. All the changes are saved, except for the textbox currently having focus.

How to reproduce:
1. Open "About me".
2. Enter, e.g. "one" in "Jabber", press Tab, enter "two" in "Yahoo".
3. Do not leave the "Yahoo" text box, press Esc.
4. Open "About me" again.

Expected behavior:
Either all the changes are saved - both "one" and "two" are present, or none - both fields remain as before.

Actual behavior:
"one" is saved, "two" is not.

This happens just with a field having focus when Esc is pressed. "Close" button saves all the changes, though.

about-me is gone from GNOME 3.x, and the bug does not apply to the user accounts panel.
