Hi,

I can open footnotes with alt-f (fantastic) but I can't find a way to close them with the keyboard. I have tried everything I can think of. A default I would have expected would be escape or maybe alt-left (like back in a browser) but no luck and I can't see suitable configuration for it

I'm struggling to use a mouse because of RSI so keyboard accessibility is super valuable. I'm trying to read a book by one of those footnote fanatical authors too hah!

thank you!

Calibre 6.28
