Description

The tooltip cannot be closed via the escape key, as expected in the keyboard interactions of the aria pattern: https://www.w3.org/WAI/ARIA/apg/patterns/tooltip/.

I see two previous issues regarding this but cannot see why they were closed.

No file or test is named in the issue. Start by reproducing the tooltip keyboard interaction and locating the trigger and existing keyboard-related tests; compare the behavior with the linked ARIA tooltip pattern. Done means an open tooltip closes with Escape and the relevant regression coverage passes.
