Title:
  feature request: esc key to close chat windows

Status in Chat app, and Telepathy user interface:
  Won't Fix
Status in One Hundred Paper Cuts:
  Invalid
Status in “empathy” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: empathy

  this should be a feature, for the following reasons:

  1, it's intuitive, more so than ctrl+w at least
  2, esc closes chat windows in most chat clients users would be familiar with, ie MSN, Pidgin etc
  3, if you just want to get rid of the window, you want it to be as quick & easy as possible.. if there's some issue with using esc, how about ctrl+d?
