Hello Tom, 

I agree that if the hosted controls handle user's input, the Backspace and Enter keys should be handled by these controls and the popup shouldn't be closed. We will consider it when addressing this item. In addition, it would be good if the popup is replaceable and the developer can control which keys to be processed by the popup.

Regards,
Desislava

I think it's import to be able to handle the back and ENTER keys on a popup.  Especially if the popup is hosting a control that requires user entry.  The user should be able to use the back key to correct misspelled entries. Furthermore, there will likely be many cases where the Enter key needs to be used for a purpose other than closing the popup.

Perhaps you could let applications handle all key down events *before* the popup closes, allowing any key to be processed normally without closing the popup.
