These are dialog boxes with buttons. We assign standard shortcuts to the
button, typically space/enter to the default button (Okay/Yes/...) and escape
to the cancellation action (Close/Cancel/...). If it's a safety relevant dialog
like "Do you want to delete all" the default is assigned to the cancellation
button.

Floating widgets do not have buttons; modifications become immediately
effective. Sometimes the widget is closed with the action (think of a mini
toolbar where you pick an attribute for the selection - and no, we don't have
this yet), sometimes the workflow involves repeated changes (like insert
various shapes). In any case a shortcut to close the floating widget is
unexpected and not helpful. => NAB
