Using the Left Arrow to exit out of menus

This was introduced over a year ago I think, but some people may be used to navigating the old way.

It always bothered me when navigating through pop up menus such as Movie details > Add to Collection, If I wanted to exit and did not have an Exit button on the touch panel, I would have to click Left, Up, Up, Up, Up, Enter to select the "Return" button on the pop up menu. ( I could also press Left, Page Up, Page Up, Enter)

Some time ago they made it more iPod like where you can just hit left multiple times and it will jump you back in the menu, then close the popup all together.
 
I think the "Stop" button does the same thing. I use it to get out of the details screen since my thumb can always find it quickly on my remote.
 
Stop is like super cancel, it closes all popups I believe.
When using Kaleidescape's OSD touch panel interface, the stop button is not visible when browsing through the On Screen Display though, only during movie playback.
 
Note that in KEAOS 3.6.x (which most of you should have by now), the left arrow intentionally will *NOT* exit the Disc In Tray sheet. You must explicitly navigate to the Exit menu item and press Select/OK.
