It is used for something else: it is used for giving focus to a dialog
which is already on but lost focus to the main window. This way you
can Tab through controls in the dialog, change some values, and presss
Esc to return to the main window, all without using a mouse. If you
want to close the dialog, just do dialog shortcut followed by Ctrl+W.
