 This is kind of like [https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/54548
 #54548], but in a different scenario.

 Here's a thing that happens every now and then:

 - I write an in-depth reply to a comment.
 - I decide to double-check spelling, so I press Menu to open the context
 menu.
 - "Check Spelling" turns out to be already on, so I press Escape to
 dismiss the context menu.
 -

 /wp-admin/js/edit-comments.js#L1039-L1042 This snippet] catches the
 "keyup" event, closing the comment reply form and dismissing everything
 that I just typed.
 - I let out a disappointed sigh and write a much shorter reply.

 But there's more! This only happens in Firefox - in Chromium-based
 browsers the `keyup` event doesn't seem to be triggered at all (?)
