Description

DateField's keyDownHandler() stops propagation of the Escape key only if it is not editable, but this should only be done if the dropDown is shown, so the parent container gets a chance to handle the Escape key.

Proposed solution:
...
else if (event.keyCode == Keyboard.ESCAPE)
{
if (showingDropdown)

{ selectedDate = lastSelectedDate; displayDropdown(false, event); event.stopPropagation(); }

}
