Despite the toolbar "Cancel" option it would be nice if we could terminate BB also with an "Esc" or "QQ" keystroke like every other tool. ;-)

Note that Esc and QQ are for terminating tools. The edit block in place feature is an editing mode QCAD enters for editing the block.

If a user for example uses the line tool in that mode and then terminates the line tool using the Escape key, one key stroke too many would immediately exit the block editing mode. Same with QQ, it should terminate all tools but not exit the block editing mode.

Good point! ;-)
