Okay, got it. I completely agree with you that if the focus is away from a dialog then pressing the shortcut should move the focus to it. So I should have been more clear in my "mission statement": Would it be possible to use the same shortcut for closing if the dialog is already visible _and has focus_?
It's an interesting idea, but I'm afraid it will be an unexpected and unexplained weirdness for a lot of people who pay no attention to the keyboard focus.
BTW, only now I realized that dialogs have differently colored "captions" depending on the focus.
Well, it's because it is that way only since about an hour ago :)
Am I the only one to find it slightly irritating that unfocused dialogs are darker? To me, unfocused has a connotation of "less visible/less apparent" or even "more diffuse", so if I had to make a choice I would reverse the shading.
I agree, I would like to have the colors swapped, too.
