Add named keyboard shortcut maps with an Escape exit and a panel indicator. Keep press/release ownership across transitions, validate remapped Escape keys, and cancel stale repeats and focus previews.
Give the indicator ownership of the panel while a mode is active. Close popovers, collapse Morph, and keep Live Activities data current without resizing the hidden panel. Document configuration and transition behavior.
Validation: 1,519 workspace Rust tests passed; 70 Python tests passed. Workspace build, formatting, Clippy, and Settings configuration validation passed. Opt-in native desktop checks were not rerun because Weston is absent.
