From fdec965700d8483af570d999c7611b6669fa4c0b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: rzen Date: Sun, 26 Jul 2026 20:58:45 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] Give the card window's title field its Escape abandon The field's exits were commit-only, silently diverging from the board rename's Escape-abandons rule, and Escape was ambiguous with the body in Edit mode. Settled: Escape reverts to the on-disk title and focuses the body; the collision resolves by focus per 06's first-responder routing.
