Hi Nicolas,

Yes, I couldn't see anywhere in the source that's causing this, very odd.

Tried replacing the gallery with a blank canvas, and Esc is handled 
correctly. I've changed my wizard, adding a ListViewer before the gallery 
- this initially has focus & Esc is ok. However tabbing into the gallery 
then stops Esc working...

My version of the source is a little old; will try this again once I've 
refreshed.
