Is there an existing issue for this?

Summary

When we are creating an issue modal shouldn't get closed if clicked outside (backdrop). It should get only closed on if user clicks on discard button

Why should this be worked on?

When user is creating issue and writing length descriptions or in a mid of writing description, clicking outside by mistake everything is lost and irritates them.

Closing modal by clicking outside makes lot's of sense but not in this scenario.

Research direction

No file or test is named in the issue. Start by locating the issue-creation modal in the TypeScript/React frontend and reproduce the backdrop-click behavior; trace how the discard action closes it. Done means clicking outside preserves the in-progress issue while the discard button still closes the modal, with the relevant frontend tests passing.
