Hotkey bug to toggle window size while in lobby chat input

[Langbart]

Nani has noticed an error when the cursor is in the lobby chat input field and you try to toggle the window size via Alt+Enter. It does not work. The hotkey worked for A24.

I am creating the ticket so that the error is not forgotten.

I am not sure this is a bug. It seems logical that having text input selected it catches *all* keys? That said, it sounds like something that would be nice indeed.

This is sorta working as designed, see ​Phab:rP25180 . On a mac system (and possibly linux/windows as well, need some checking), alt can be used to input text, so shouldn't trigger hotkeys.

Alt+enter in particular is different from regular enter on regular MacOS keyboards, and so shouldn't trigger hotkeys in multiline input.

That said, the logic could possibly be improved so that if Enter isn't a possible input (e.g. not multiline stuff) then the hotkey could still be triggered, but that isn't something I'd call very worthwhile.

Keeping the ticket alive, but fix maybe unlikely.

Now you can't unfocus from the text input with any hotkey or key from the keyboard, now you must grab the mouse  like a caveman and click somewhere else on the screen to be able to use the usual GUI hotkeys. Note: pressing "Escape" seems to close properly the in-game chat only because it has overwritten it in the JS explicitly. Being able to at least have the unfocus event working should be better default (so this should be a must have)
