SUMMARY
Please make the Esc key deselect the text when text is selected. This is probably expected by the user, since the Esc key mostly does this everywhere else (eg. Kate)

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Select some text using the Text Selection tool
2. Try to deselect it by pressing the Escape key 

OBSERVED RESULT
Nothing happens, the text remains selected

EXPECTED RESULT
The text should deselect
