Comment:

 Agree that this modal, since it contains a required decision, needs some
 special handling. Using standard keyboard escape could be confusing, since
 its behavior wouldn't be the expected behavior, and would redirect to a
 new page.

 The use of 'Enter' to control just one of a set of buttons in a modal
 sounds like an accident waiting to happen. With only three controls
 present, navigating through this modal by keyboard is a minimal challenge,
 and it's better to avoid that possibility.

 Closing; as always, can be reopened for further discussion.
