Bug / unexpected behaviour when pressing Escape in an Edit bookmark dialogue box

  • Nema odgovora

Hello. If I press ctrl+D while on an already bookmarked site then the "Edit bookmark" dialogue box appears.

The issue is that pressing Escape to cancel the Edit dialogue box will save any changes made, rather than simply cancelling and discarding any changes.

For example, changing the bookmark's title to "Apricots" then pressing Escape should see the Edit dialogue box be dismissed with no changes made to the bookmark. However instead the bookmark will now have the title "Apricots", as if I had pressed Enter or clicked Save instead.

There also does not seem to be any other way to simply cancel out of the Edit dialogue box? Pressing alt+F4, ctrl+F4 or clicking outside of the dialogue box will also not cancel the edit, but will instead save changes to the bookmark.

I have tested in a new profile but the issue persists.

Does anyone know how to make pressing the Escape key in an Edit bookmark dialogue box behave like a Cancel rather than a Save?

(Fortunately, this is not an issue with the Add bookmark dialogue box for new bookmarks. There, pressing Escape cancels out of the dialogue box without making any changes or saving anything.)
