Research direction
Reproduce the reported behavior by typing in a Chinese input source with Vimium enabled, then compare it with Vimium disabled as shown in the issue. Trace the handling of Escape and input focus until the cause is identified; done means Escape no longer incorrectly blurs the input while the expected Vimium behavior remains intact.
