Public bug reported:

With the fix for bug #1523828, popovers are automatically closed when
ESC is pressed. This is a good default behaviour, however the
implementation is unfortunate: because the escapePressed handler is
defined on the foreground (a child item of the root popover), app
developers don’t get a chance to override it.

Here’s a concrete use case: in the browser, when bookmarking a page with
Ctrl+D, a popover with bookmark options is shown. We want the Enter key
to validate the options and save the bookmark, and the ESC key to remove
the bookmark.

** Affects: ubuntu-ui-toolkit (Ubuntu)
