What happened?

• Ask Gemini to explain the project
• You start typing something else you want to send next. You want to cancel the ongoing work so you can send it.
• Hit escape - it cancels the work but also clears the input field!

What did you expect to happen?

Stop clearing the input field. Escape should never clear input. ctrl+c should
