Description
**Bug Description**
agent view "space for reply" is very confusing and frustrating.
before I used to press space to know I was in the box and then start typing because then the cursor moved.
Can we have the option of different key please? Space is used for typing
And I guess sometimes for voice within this thing. But yeah, opening the reply box with a different letter would probably be a little bit better.
Took me about 15 minutes to work out that I needed to press the letter keys to fill in the box and that the space key wouldn't fill in the box anymore. That was really, really, really annoying.

Research direction
No files or tests are named. Start by reproducing the conflict in the agent view reply box on Linux with xterm-256color, then trace the key handling for opening and typing in the box. Done means the reply box opens without consuming space as a text character, and space can be entered normally while composing a new agent line.
