Description
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Get auto-suggestions
- Click escape
- Suggestions don't go away, normal mode triggers.
Expected behavior
Suggestions should go away. Normal mode should trigger if Esc is clicked after they're gone.
I read that Shift+ESC has the expected behavior, but pressing shift+esc is inconvenient. Can we add a config for either options?

Reproduce the issue by triggering auto-suggestions and pressing Escape, then inspect the suggestion-dismissal and Escape key-handling entry points. Confirm that Escape dismisses suggestions first and only triggers normal mode after they are gone; also clarify how the requested configuration should work.
